Problem: Please answer a question about the following article about Military history of the United States:
The Persian Gulf War was a conflict between Iraq and a coalition force of 34 nations led by the United States. The lead up to the war began with the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in August 1990 which was met with immediate economic sanctions by the United Nations against Iraq. The coalition commenced hostilities in January 1991, resulting in a decisive victory for the U.S. led coalition forces, which drove Iraqi forces out of Kuwait with minimal coalition deaths. Despite the low death toll, over 180,000 US veterans would later be classified as "permanently disabled" according to the US Department of Veterans Affairs (see Gulf War Syndrome). The main battles were aerial and ground combat within Iraq, Kuwait and bordering areas of Saudi Arabia. Land combat did not expand outside of the immediate Iraq/Kuwait/Saudi border region, although the coalition bombed cities and strategic targets across Iraq, and Iraq fired missiles on Israeli and Saudi cities.
How many nations were against Iraq in the US-led coalition?
A: 34
Problem: Please answer a question about the following article about Tennessee:
In February 1861, secessionists in Tennessee's state governmentled by Governor Isham Harrissought voter approval for a convention to sever ties with the United States, but Tennessee voters rejected the referendum by a 5446% margin. The strongest opposition to secession came from East Tennessee (which later tried to form a separate Union-aligned state).

The Tennessee legislature ratified an agreement to enter a military league with the Confederate States on May 7, 1861. On June 8, 1861, with people in Middle Tennessee having significantly changed their position, voters approved a second referendum calling for secession, becoming the last state to do so.
Which region of Tennessee swung in favor of secession in the June 1861 referendum?
A: Middle Tennessee
Problem: Please answer a question about the following article about Dutch language:
Some nouns have two different diminutives, each with a different meaning: bloem (flower) bloempje (lit. "small flower"), but bloemetje (lit. also "small flower", meaning bouquet). A few nouns exist solely in a diminutive form, e.g. zeepaardje (seahorse), while many, e.g. meisje (girl), originally a diminutive of meid (maid), have acquired a meaning independent of their non-diminutive forms. A diminutive can sometimes be added to an uncountable noun to refer to a single portion: ijs (ice, ice cream) ijsje (ice cream treat, cone of ice cream), bier (beer) biertje. Some diminutive forms only exist in plural, e.g. kleertjes (clothing).
What's the Dutch word for the items like shirts and pants that you wear that only exists in a plural form?
A: kleertjes
Problem: Please answer a question about the following article about Gramophone record:
Unwilling to accept and license Columbia's system, in February 1949 RCA Victor, in cooperation of its parent, the Radio Corporation of America, released the first 45 rpm single, 7 inches in diameter with a large center hole. The 45 rpm player included a changing mechanism that allowed multiple disks to be stacked, much as a conventional changer handled 78s. The short playing time of a single 45 rpm side meant that long works, such as symphonies, had to be released on multiple 45s instead of a single LP, but RCA claimed that the new high-speed changer rendered side breaks so brief as to be inaudible or inconsequential. Early 45 rpm records were made from either vinyl or polystyrene. They had a playing time of eight minutes.
What did RCA release to complete against Columbia's LP?
A:
The 45 rpm player
