It's always been my favorite but it's nothing to do with geography. It's the first letter of my first name.

Just so you know, Limerick and Liverpool are not counting as answers. Might explain the high number of wrong answers for both. Enjoyed the quiz otherwise. :-)

Yet 83% get Liverpool and over 60% get Limerick? Doesn't appear to be a problem for most people.

This is from where lesbians got their name. Sappho was the islands most famous historical inhabitant and was reportedly bisexual, with huge interest in women. (She was ancient greek poet)

I actually very much enjoy the questions about human geography topics. They provide a challenge and are much more difficult than the typical political/physical geography questions.

The Rhine is the longest river partly in France. The Loire is the longest river wholly in France.

Wouldn't accept "Luzon" for me. Also, it just hit me that Louisiana, purchased from Napoleon by Thomas Jefferson, is named after the beheaded king (Louis XVI) who preceded Napoleon as ruler of France. The irony continues... Jefferson was Ambassador to the French Court during Louis XVI's reign.

Erm..... the last one is question about a geographical region. I know many people have a problem with grasping the concept of human geography, but this question isn't one of the "controversial" ones.
