20 Trivia Questions (United States of America) No. 1

[@lindacosta3381]

I got 19 out of 20. Did anyone else think the Mississippi River is longer than the Missouri?

[@dangeroreilly2028]

that was the only one I missed, too.

[@ewaleokadia76]

I misread one question. It read, what country is the largest (by area). I thought it read what country is the largest (by DRY area).😂

[@elizabethshow5105]

Linda Costa that’s the only one I missed too!

[@antoinettecorsi615]

Same here, my reply was also the Mississipe River.

[@dalecox5928]

I only got that question right because I had read the Missouri was longer in a book a couple of books ago. But I remember being taught that the Mississippi was longer when I was in grade school. (Waaaaay back in the 1960s.) I guess they remeasured both rivers since then.

[@TriviaNight]

19 out of 20. Great set of questions. Hope to see more soon.

[@alanalderson1427]

15/20. Not bad for a Brit.

[@rachelnettles9677]

19/20 I too thought Mississippi River was longest

[@maryconker4822]

Great Quiz.I thought the Mississippi was the longest river. That was the only one I missed.

[@sezaimamoglu8184]

Good quiz

[@siinniang7737]

I love very much.a lot of knowledge.Thank you very much.

[@TheTriviaChannel]

Thanks Siin. Most appreciated!

[@bholmes5490]

good quiz, thank you

[@TheTriviaChannel]

You are welcome :)

[@johnspitler3214]

Got them all right. Fairly easy and wouldn’t help practice for Jeopardy.

[@CrosswordPuzzlesChannel]

Good quiz. Got 15/20. Decent for a non-American I suppose.

[@rosemarymancera4318]

Missed a few but learned a lot!!! Thanks.

[@barryfowles-zl5ib]

It probably made you remember you are American.

[@ruthborg2430]

The Statue of Liberty was actually designed by a French sculptor named Bartholdi. The inner structure was added by Eiffel.

[@ellenanderson9535]

Ruth Borg thank you professor

[@petersclafani4370]

There is a copy of statue of liberty in Paris France. We should return the statue. Foreigners as well as activities take advantage of its meaning.

[@44ablemonk]

What about the "state of liberty" ad the quiz says. That confused me.

[@estherbynum]

Love these videos!!!

[@suzum5689]

Remember it this way: The Mississippi.. is SPELLED longer, but Missouri IS longer.

[@petersclafani4370]

Then again who cares. It won't change the country. Anyone know how it became the longest

[@fezzik7619]

How about this? Dessert or desert? Which would you rather have two of?

[@petersclafani4370]

It goes back to prehistoric times. Middle America wa a huge lake. It divided the land and the dinosaurs I

[@UZUAKPUNDU]

Quite informative.

[@bigfootbillunknown9511]

Oddly enough, a majority of this Trivia, isn't taught in PUBLIC SCHOOLS anymore. Put that in your Book of Trivia!

[@lindataylor2131]

Not odd at all. Did you know that most kids today do not receive much education about history at all? Not even American history. My daughter took her GED test two years ago, and got a high score because they asked a few questions about American history that she knew the answers to because of watching PBS and listening to me talk about being in New England during the Bi-centennial celebrations in 76.

[@davidkonen7159]

Interesting! If our President HAD his way, I think MANY people would be STUMPED, and the CONSEQUENCES could be FATAL!

[@dawntownsendable]

David Konen gimme a break 🙄

[@leelinr1259]

Big Foot Bill Unknown Sometimes I wonder just what it is that most schools teach!! I say not much of anything and it's sad because they have taken so much out of the Teaching program‼️

[@leelinr1259]

Linda Taylor Yep and it's so sad because there is so much History to be learned ‼️

[@wayneleighton3574]

Good quiz!...I aced this one!

[@margowestover938]

I got all 20 right. A great general knowledge American quiz.

[@katewilkinson3640]

As a non American 13 year old I got 17/20 😎

[@jeffthackston9572]

Isn't he annoying!

[@anthonysemonella8595]

As soon as I see that jerk l move on, what an annoying person, what is his function

[@lezorford7155]

Should I even inquire about this one???

[@canthonyjk]

The Statue of Liberty was designed and built by Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, not Eiffel. He originally was going to give it to Egypt, but they refused.

[@muttley1956]

canthonyjk Agreed although Eiffel did design and build the supporting framework.

[@lezorford7155]

@@muttley1956 That's an important distinction...Thanks (& our Quiz Master should be acknowledging this too)!

[@kabouterwesley83]

Do you live in the US?

[@leelinr1259]

kabouterwesley83 Yes I do Why⁉️

[@kabouterwesley83]

Well, these questions are obviously easier for Americans than for non-Americans.

[@AFmedic]

1) It is Soooooo nice to not have loud annoying music playing 2) This test must have done by a non-American, because an American would have wrote the date as July 4 and NOT 4 July.

[@janeadams8355]

19 of 20.

I did a little better - got ONLY some questions wrong, but I think one could LEARN from this

You mean as us Americans say vacation? A holiday to us is like Independence day for example.

Re: item 8: Benedict Arnold did not go to the UK immediately following the American Rerevolution. He settled in the new Loyalist city of Saint John, in what is now New Brunswick in Canada. He ticked everyone off there, though, and was "invited" to leave.

19 out of 20, apparently new jersey is not a suburb of new york

[@psal8715]

New Jersey? A SUBURB? You probably did NOT know it became a PART of the 13 colonies which UNITED against GREAT BRITAIN back near the END of the 18th Century.

[@barriewinstanley3124]

I thought the Mississippi was longer than the Missouri.. but, the only right answer is the one the quiz Master is looking for.... So, Quizmaster.. excellent quiz, thank you, but my score was garbage.

I miss 1 out of 20 and that was question number 2

[@kenbray5682]

Aced it !

[@Eowyn187]

In my 50s and was taught Texas was largest state and Mississippi was longest river. Makes me mad if I was wrongly taught.

[@dewaynecoleman1989]

Me too! But actually knew that Alaska is the largest State by area, because I've got relatives that live in Texas, and they talk about Texas not wanting Alaska to join the Union because they'd no longer be the largest State in the Union. It was disproved almost fast as I learned it.

[@Deborahtunes]

Shows how much the US education system is a joke...

Haha, too funny. Those were the only two I got right.

[@rosemaryrogers1478]

I thought Mississippi was longest river also

That would be a wonderful gift...the state of liberty ☺️

[@annbolyn4910]

That's not a very good reflection of whoever puts these quizzes together! They're fun, but they have to get their verbiage correct.

[@pipper70]

20/20. Any red blooded American of average intelligence should score at least 18 to 20 correct. Still, it was a fun quiz.😊

Missed two. I worked on the Missouri River

[@patrickirvin1486]

Got that one wrong

20 out of 20 & I'm not American. Just shows you Hollywood and the media have educated the word about the U.S.

[@katkat-fm3wj]

I got 15 out of 20 right. It would be nice to get a score, or grade at the end. Kind of takes the fun away.

I tend to agree it would be better if there was some simple way it could get incorporated into a KZbin video, but it doesn't really seem possible.
