When Tony and Deadeye shoot at Jim, their knives and bullets hit the wall behind him and to his left. However, when he runs to the wall to grab the knife a minute later, he runs to his right.
Count Manzeppi offers, as the prize for defeating Titan, the "...crown of Roman emperor Heroditus..."
Heroditus was a Grecian historian; there was no roman emperor named Heroditus; furthermore, the "crowns" bestowed upon Romans were either wreaths of laurel leaves or replicas of the same.

When Count Manzeppi greets West he introduces himself but they had already met in "Night of the Feathered Fury".
Actually, "Night of the Feathered Fury" came later on toward the end of the second season.

Near the end of the episode when West goads Tony into throwing knives at him, slits cut in the door can be seen around West's head and shoulders. This allows trick knives spring loaded and concealed on the backside of the door to be sprung through the slits, hilt first, simulating a real and potentially lethal throw.
When Jim fights Tony and Deadeye on stage, he kicks Deadeye from right to left and barely taps him. However, Deadeye goes flying left to right.
Mexican President Benito Juarez was 4'6" tall, making him one of the shortest heads of state in history. The actor who plays him appears to be at least six feet tall.
Count Manzeppi claims that his electrical execution device was inspired by Van Der Graaf's experiments in static electricity. Robert Van Der Graaf (1901-1967), a generator pioneer who was alive when this segment was made, was born 30 years after 1871 when it takes place.
When Jim West enters the Eco Amusement Park, there is music playing on an old-fashioned-looking phonograph (complete with a large, cornucopia-shaped speaker), and West turns it off as if he were familiar with its operation. Other dialogue places this episode four years after the death of Emperor Maximilian of Mexico (which occurred in 1867) -- that is, in 1871 -- yet Thomas Edison didn't invent the phonograph until 1877, or six years after this episode is set.
When Jim and Miranda scale the wall of the Mexican Presidential Palace, they are accosted by Arty in the guise of a Mexican military officer. The weapon that Arty pulls on them is a Colt M1878 double action revolver. BUT the year had been established earlier as 1871, when Jim identified a portrait as Emperor Maximilian who had been shot by Mexican Revolutionaries four years earlier (which had happened in 1867, making that year 1871). So, a revolver that would not be designed and marketed until 1878 could not have been around in 1871.
Early in the climactic scene in the presidential palace, West refers to Miranda as "Amanda."
Count Carlos and Giulio the Puppet refer to Archduke Karl Ludwig (Charles Louis in English) as Maximilian's cousin. In fact he was Maximilian's brother.
