Scandinavia isn't a country.
Budhism isn't a monotheistic religion because ther's no god in it. Buddha has nothing to do with the thing.
And I think EVERY culture worshipped mother earth.
Everyone answered correctly to Golem so why did they only get half point?
And zoroastrim starts from 10 th century BCE if I recall.
Overall good but you should make the questions more clear.

Which three Norse Gods gave there name in anglo-saxons week,to the 3 days of week,Thusday,Wensday and Thursday?
Isnt it 4 days, atleast the Nordic weeks have 4 days based on the Norse Gods.
For example, here is the swedish weeks and there gods:
Tisdag (tuesday) = Tyrs dag (Tyrs day)
Onsdag (wednesday) = Odens dag (Lokes day)
Torsdag (thursday) = Tors dag (Thors day)
Fredag (friday) = Frejs dag (Frejs day - I dont know if it is Frej and Freja in english though
And then Måndag (monday) is the "Moons Day", Söndag (sunday) is the "Suns Day" and I have no idea about Lördag (saturday).
