  3. I got 7 out of 15 – a fun and interesting quiz!
    Can you explain about question #7 please? :
    Antigua and Barbuda’s total land area is 440 sq. km. Which of the following is not true about the land area of this two-island nation?
    – It’s about as big as Vatican City.
    – It’s about 100 times the size of White House. (This one you have as the correct answer)
    – It’s about two-thirds as big as Disneyland.
    – It’s about 3 times as big as The Pentagon.

    Did you say “not” by mistake?! 😀

    • The question is which one is not true about the country’s land area in comparison to other famous structures’ land areas.

      All other 3 are correct except one. It should be 75 White Houses only to tantamount 1 Antigua and Barbuda’s total land area.

      Your score is not bad at all, at least u made it half Norman..Hope u had fun and keep posted for my next country quiz which is Argentina.

      • Well, it’s not true that 440 square kilometres is about as big as Vatican City (which is less than one square km!), or about two-thirds as big as Disneyland. (which is just over 2 sq km) 😮 so both of those are “correct” answers…
