Well that was not as much fun as I hoped. It's a tough quiz.
55% right and I'm really not pleased to admit that.

I finished more than 81% of the quiz before it quit on me. My computer is probably getting old. If I had to guess, I'd say I scored about 62%.
Few of us can be as brilliant as Moi
Woo hoo, the test started up again. I scored 69%.

Your score
29
Correct
13
Wrong
69%
You answered 29 of 42 questions correctly for a total score of 69%.
74% average score. But did they cheat? I did not. But I think the history, and sports questions tripped me. Don't do well in history and sports.
What an extensive test. Very challenging. And once taken, helps build one's knowledge base.
Having been to many countries in S. and C. America I can tell you it is HUGE. And very ignored by America.
In spite of the unrest reported by the news, people are friendly, and havae the same wants, needs, hopes, dreams anyone does.
Just sad that their political people and corporations take MORE advantage of them than in America.
Think America has a rough wild terrain ? HA. Think HOT, HUMID, MOLD, BUGS. And dry, dusty, parched, cold. It's like Alaska and Florida all wrapped up in one.
Not much in the way of mid-west terrain though. Except for the jungles that have been leveled and replaced with sugar cane. Lots of that. Easy to see from the air.

I owe my "average" score to having studied
Latino Cartoon History
http://www.amazon.com/Latino-USA-Revise ... 0465082505
It really is very academic.
Moi
Also recommended are the cartoon history books by
Stan Mack. And Larry Gonick too.
