    So not general knowledge for most americans as our gen knowledge basically stops around 3rd grade level IF THAT! And it's only going to get worse here real quick thanks to the orange turd. It's thoroughly depressing for those of us that aren't f*****g idiots!

    27/30, and I'm French. I just wonder how many of these will still be true, or be meaningful, 4 years from now.

    30/30 Amazing! Every single question—correct. If this was the actual test, you’d be walking out with citizenship papers in hand. Go ahead, give yourself a high five—you’ve earned it! Thanks, but I don't wanna be a US citizen. The test is very easy even for a non-American. It's a mixture of general knowledge, easy to deduce, or the same as in my country. Just pointing out that for question 25 the answer should be 'oligarchy', and you don't even have that as an option! So fix it.

    Who the hell would want to be a US citizen?! And even if it was a country you would want to be affiliated to, Bored Panda please turn the tide of your Americanisation. Get some balance. There are, truly, so many other countries out there.

    BP was literally designed to be oriented to the US. It's their business model.

    These are not nearly the questions in the citizenship test.

    Woohoo, I got citizenship! …wait, can I say no and just be an Australian citizen? Don't get me wrong, you guys make the best steaks I've ever had in my life and everyone I met when I visited the country was absolutely lovely but the idea of becoming an American right now or even coming back as a visitor is f*****g terrifying.

    He would choose some other answer, then state that he is correct, and it is the truth. Like saying Ukraine started the war - which disgusts me more than even many of the other criminal, anti-democratic, and disgusting stuff he's done and said. It's up there with wanting to steal Palestinian land and make it a resort. If someone states the real truth, he'll say it's fake news. Soon, he'll start jailing anyone who disagrees with him.
