A lot of "half" things about Montserrat, it's also half uninhabitable due to a volcano that ruined the southern part of the island and literally burried the capital city under ashes. I think that's the only capital city in the world that is also a ghost town.
Took me two tries too. My first attempt was a pathetic 3/19. Then I studied the shapes, names, and placements of each region and came up with crazy mnemonic devices.
Saint Martin (the French side) is larger than Sint Maarten (the Dutch side). As the wives tale goes, the French and Dutch administrators of the island were having a territorial dispute and decided to settle it by standing back to back and walking in opposite directions. They agreed that when they met, each had claim to the amount of territory he had covered. Except that the Dutchman, had a bottle of Bols (Gin) in his cloak and made frequent stops to imbibe. He, therefore, covered less ground.
Great Quiz! Please could you add Saba (Netherlands) and Sint Eustatius (Netherlands)? They are both north west of Saint Kitts & Nevis. They are both very much on their own and I think they would complete the quiz Thanks
Ehm, if you get it right, you get it right, if you get it wrong you get it wrong. There is no partial credits.. the two percentages in the answer list mean; percentage of people that got it right, and percentage of the times you got it right taking this test ( so if you took it 5 times and got it correct 4 times, there would be 80% behind tge answer.
Yea, Saba is 13 km sq but Saint Eustatius is a little smaller than Saint Barthelemy and you could probably see it but it might be too close to St Kitts.
This represents both the French Collective (Saint-Martin) and the Dutch Autonomous Country (Sint Maarten) as the single island they are on (Saint Martin).
I think I'm better than my teacher at geography!
1) Why isn't Isla Margarita included in the quiz?
2) Isn't Puerto Rico part of the Caribbean anymore?
