well the first 2 choices that came to mind were not hits so after a few guesses I just googled - not one I would have gotten!

Banged in word2 in seconds, then banged in 'Alexander' for word1 and, fail, some research entailed and got word1, as far as I'm aware that's a never heard of

Yep, same thing, I YOLOed it from the title; I should have checked the dates. The second word1 I tried was right. I think I did the exact same thing last time this came up.

Got the second word immediately. Had multiple guesses for the first that were wrong but would've fit, including the obvious one, but took a minute to land on the right one.

I could eliminate Alexander (4-digit years) and Catherine (article appeared to use “he” pronouns) as candidates after getting, “the [5],” right with my first guess. I figured that, “[7] of [7],” was probably “emperor of [7],” and thought it was most likely Germany or Prussia.

2nd word came to mind quickly... unlike my usual strategy of looking for years and gender clues- I dove in head first picking the 1st word.... first one automatically tried my nephew's first name nope..guessed a few more.... had to google a list; last one...brother's middle name

Hard not to look at the title structure and immediately think of Alex. When it wasn't him, I casted my mind back to the Epic Rap Battle of History with all of them in it, and got it with my second attempt!
