Civic Literacy Quiz

I am well aware not everyone here is a US citizen (and neither am I), but it's interesting anyway. Let's see how many of you US and non-US guys can beat the average score. By the way, mine was 84.85%, so I guess I should do it like Schwarzenegger.

I hate to say it...but I'm in the same boat with Stilgar. :P

You answered 30 out of 33 correctly — 90.91 %

I did fine on the history ones, but economics killed me.

Seems like you don't know the joke with the three bulls :wink:

Three bulls - a young, a mature and an old one - standing on the top of a hill. They see a herd of cows in the valley.

The young one: Come on guys, we rush down jump on them and have fun with all.
The mature: We slowly walk down, pick the worthy and have fun with them.
The old one: I think I'll just stay here. Those want something will come to me anyways.

Trust me I'm old enough to stay on my side :wink:
