Thanks for this. Just as cute as I'd imagined.

I deem this post "sufferable" and am awarding positive rep.

Go to this website. Choose your state, and "50 questions" ... Post results. I got 88%. Had to take several guesses -- and got almost all of them wrong. One question that I got wrong that I thought I had right was "Why did the Colonists fight the British?"

I got 96% correct. One of the ones I missed I think was defensible because I think multiple answers are correct.

Missed questions:

7) When was the Constitution written?
A. 1787
B. 1778
C. 1785
D. 1776

I answered C. The correct answer was A. I'm such a bad citizen.

12) Name one problem that led to the Civil War.
A. human rights
B. election freedom
C. economic reasons
D. presidential conflicts

Believing that slavery was a human rights issue I answered a. The answer was c. I think both are correct. D is probably also correct given that the election of Lincoln was a precipitating event in secession.

Reminds me of the Simpson's episode where Apu is asked a very similar question as part of his citizenship test.
