I got 15 I admit, I don't know much American history, nor do I know much about the US government.

29/30 here
the number of unratified amendments tripped me up, not a topic that came up a lot in history class...I only knew of one for sure, the ERA, & that was passed & withered on the vine since I left school...
I am impressed by OF's score, as he says, stone cold foreigner, & probably has never had the urge to immigrate...well, at least not till he saw how many pixie ladies live here...

I got "Give me Liberty or give me death" confused with "I regret that I have but one live to give to my country."

WI,
Wasn't that "I regret I have but one cigar to give to my country, but I did not have . . ."?
