American History Quiz

[joebartels]

Beware this is 78 questions. With more of an interest in math/science I expected 40% yet squeaked out 66%. Which rated "Uncle Sam is Impressed", really... boy that is semi sad. Living in Arizona for decades helped on a few question. Going to middle school in Oklahoma and taking Oklahoma history was useless. Which is sad as my teacher dressed up like the characters he taught. I learned a little, pulled a few outta my pumpkin and missed a couple I shouldn't have missed. Obviously you could google in another window. I refrained as I wanted to see if Bruce had merit in his doorknob comparisons.

@sidhayes
Don't worry. We're in the clear. They were stolen by the French!

#68 "stolen lands"?

The US bought the lands at a steal from France...
who stole them from Spain...
who in turn apparently stole them from the Native Americans.

98%. Missed one question, the one that asked "Which of these cities was never the capital of the US?"

Same here...

I missed that one, too.
