I got every question right and still I feel stupid for having actually taken the silly test. 
Is 0 good?
Only the fucking History Channel would include questions about rap music in a history quiz.
They have gone totally down the shitter in the last few years. 
The questions must be randomized because I didn't have any questions about rap. I do agree the channel has gone downhill though. Too many stupid reality shows and delusional shows about religion and aliens.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
There are an awful lot of pop culture questions in there. I hate that. I took the test three times and wound up with questions like, "Who was the den mother of the rat pack?" Are you fucking serious?
Correct Answers/Questions: 7 out of 10
Final Game Score: 1,105 Time to Complete Game: 43.10 seconds This is a terrible way to test knowledge, by the way.

At least Shirl was apparently 'the good time had by all'.--she was one hot chick. That kind of question belongs in a game of trivial-pursuit-for- baby boomers, not on an alleged history test. PS I took the test and got 7/10 . It may come as a HUGE surprise to the OP, but there ARE actually over 2 hundred countries besides the US. Hard as may be to believe, they all have a history,most far more than the US.
Pad, Americans don't know shit about their own history....you expect them to pay attention to foreigners?

EG in a recent survey, around 80% (including me) could not name our first Prime Minister,so of course they kept using it in the citizenship test. Quote:..you expect them to pay attention to foreigners? No, not really. Not since 1985 when I was in New York and was complimented on my English. I was miffed, so replied " Why thank you.Pity I can't say the same about yours".
