After torturing all you Yanks out there for months, I felt it was time to make it up to you with a quiz about your own country. I don't know if they're easy or not, but to an Aussie they probably are difficult. Let's hear it for the Home of the Brave!

St. Louis is not the largest city on the Mississippi. Memphis is the largest based on population. St. Louis may have a larger metro area.
#2 is also poorly worded!
Out of the over 270 major weather stations in the US, the two wettest are Yakutat, Alaska with 160.4 inches of precipitation and 235 wet days a year, and Hilo, Hawaii with 126.3 inches of rain and 278 rainy days a year.

Check again. Memphis is the largest city on the Mississippi by far. It's the 17th largest US city. St. Louis isn't in the top 50.
