I really have no idea what the history lesson means, I don't get it at all
EDIT: I think I get what the puzzle is but I'm still stuck on it
EDIT 2: Ok, got it

How? I tried every permutation of the 5 italic letters. Or did I miss a hint?

If the starting point is true to what the history teacher said, then there are 12 different ways arranging the letters. I think I tried all 12 so far (plus some nonsensical stuff aswell)

Any hints for someone stuck on the history lesson? (don't want to write down the 5 letters that are italic so no one can skip puzzles 1+2) )

Thanks, the puzzle is awesome and really fun. I would just like to point out that you did the math part poorly. Someone who knew the answers couldn't post them in most cases but had to use wolfram just to get the proper format. Don't get me wrong, the puzzle was awesome, and i love wolfram, but consider adding different format in the future so people aren't forced to use a program to get the answers. I hope you are not offended by this, as i don't mean anything bad :)

Hi there Awesome people !!!
I will be reaching my 1K$ contribution and I though it would be nice to get it with an awesome quick giveaway ^^
So here is the Puzzle and here is the treasure
Some wise words, which might help you:
My history teacher used to say, that italic font was used to mark the spot on pirate maps as "X" and the starting point was marked as O.
But she also used to say, that my Math teacher should stop playing around with WolframAlpha !
