How Ignorant About YOUR OWN Country Are You?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

How Ignorant About YOUR OWN Country Are You?

Post by General Mackevili »

Come on, take the quiz. It's fun and you just might learn something. You get to choose which country you take the quiz for and shows you what your fellow citizens chose too.

Don't forget to post a screenshot of your result.

No cheating.

That's an interesting series of questions because the results tend to underline possible prejudices and wrong-headed presumptions. How you think about old people (I'm one), immigrants and religion, for example. Anyway, sorry didn't see note about a screen grab. I was 5/9 for Canada. Same trio of countries for comparison.

I did that quizz a couple of weeks ago.

Only scored 3/9. I guess things have changed a bit from what I remember. :cry:

Knowing the point of the test, I went with the counter-intuitive answer on all of them. Just figure out which end of the political spectrum the question was a hot button issue for, and then answer the opposite of whatever they would say. Qualifies me to be Swedish.

Yep. Apologizes to Anchor Mouy, as he posted it a few days back.

Remember, you can get rid of your passport to avoid taxes. Image Swedish ain't a bad choice.

Yeah, I got 7/9 ! But like LTO I was sort of guessing what they were looking for. However, I don't get to be Swedish :cry:
