This month's pick for the "Flairs' Choice Award" goes to /u/Trevor_Culley for their work on Alexander the Great's invasion of India gets no mention in Indian sources, all our knowledge of it comes from Greek sources. Are records lost or did Indian historians consider it unimportant?

Next up we have the "Users' Choice Award" going to the magnificent /u/YourlocalTitanicguy for What would the odds be of Dua Lipa actually surviving the sinking of the Titanic?

The "Dark Horse Award" was a very close fought race this month, with /u/TremulousHand narrowly taking the victory with Do we have knowledge if Beowulf was considered 'special' at it's time or was it one of many but it's the one that survived to us?

For this month's 'Greatest Question', voted on by the mods, goes to During the early 1500s, the Indian ocean was contested by the Portuguese and the Muslim powers. How did the sailing practices and traditions of the Portuguese, Ottomans, Mamluks and Gujaratis differ? by /u/thePhantom_Warlock! Still hoping for that special answer.
