Facts 4171-4200

Hope everyone had an awesome Christmas! New Years Eve is fast approaching, so I'm working on my New Years Resolution.

Also a quick note, since I think Wattpad has a 200 part limit for these online books, I'm thinking about deleting some of the Authors notes I posted to make room for more facts. I'll start Volume 2 eventually, but first I want to get as many facts in this first book as I possible can!

So if you find some parts missing, don't be alarmed! Just tossing away Authors Notes I don't need anymore. Onto the facts!
