The Quiz: A beret is a traditional hat from which country?
Sweden
Wales
Italy
France
Berets have a history that traces back to the Bronze Age, when ancient Greek and Roman citizens wore floppy sun hats and conical caps that combined and evolved to become the beret we know today. The felt headpiece took its current shape in the 14th and 15th centuries, when members of the lower class donned them to cover their heads outdoors. A few centuries later, the black beret became a fashion statement for French women, which is how most people picture it to this day.
The correct answer to this quiz is France.
