I now realise there are a few other other don't know/not sure/can't finds in this marathon (sorry, 200 step) quiz.

1921 M becomes leader of Italy. I have Mussolini becomes leader of Italy, but it should be 1922.
1924 HC finds T of T in E. I have Howard Carter finds tomb of Tutankhamun
in Egypt. But it should be 1924.
So I don't trust this quiz!

1971 D of EM. I have Dawn of Electronic Music, but it is probably not the right answer.
1999 MM becomes EM in NI. I have Mary McAleese becomes...in Northern Ireland.
2003 SHS toppled. I have Saddam Hussain'S toppled, but I had to invent the apostrophe...
2004
IOE and T. Independence of...?
2005 R on FGMP. Referendum?

And I still have no answer for:
1954 KBTC
1969 - C makes MF
1995 OB
1996 DB

Please help!!!
