This quiz is really clever because very few of the clues actually refer to the cities in question.

By "very few"... the first one kind of does? Same on the sixth.. and none of the others do at all? Although I guess you could make an argument that the Father of the Constitution was directly related to why the city was named that, so maybe that one sort of also?

Anyway, I'd think that was kind of the point, but, well, you're not wrong.

A nice quiz, and I am terrible at US state capitals. Shocking, though, that less than 60% guessed Pierre Trudeau, or is that being too Canada-centric?

Probably a mix of not knowing who Pierre Trudeau is and not knowing Pierre is a capital of a US state

I was trying to remember what US state had the capital of "Justin." I had no idea that there was another Trudeau that was P.M. I had to go through the states to figure it out. It was so obvious once I figured it out.

Charleston is capital of West Virginia, but Charlston WITHOUT AN 'E' is the largest S Carolina city, so it doesn't correspond.

Personally I don't think "biggest city" is a very strong clue (it doesn't really fit in with the others). Especially when there is another way to describe it. Like (swing) dance popularized in the early 20s century. Just a suggestion though

(Edit: And I just learned the dance was named after the South-Carolina city. But the comment still stands, describing city names by city names just doesn't fit the theme. Plus the dance is more internationally known than the city)
