What is the proper translation for と続いた後で?


> ｘやｙなどと続いた後で、ｚという答えがあった。

Literally it means something like:

> The answers were x, y followed by z.

What is the better translation for this?




As far as the nuance goes, it is like saying:

> "After a (long) run/series of answers such as X and Y, there came Answer Z."

「～～と[続]{つづ}いた」 implies that it took a pretty long time for all the answers to
be presented.
