Geography Trivia

mescall, Alaska has both the easternmost and westernmost points in the United States. A geographical oddity. It has to do with the hemispheres and the 180th meridian.

cdowdy aks, part of Alaska is so far west, it encroaches into the eastern zone

13/15….Alaska most Eastern, are you kidding?🤔

Repeat quiz. At least 3 or 4 times.

Leapy Lee, I got that too! I think it’s sarcastic. 😬🤣

How is Alaska on the East coast. Seriously

Bermuda is not a country, it is a British overseas territory

I would love to know what the author thinks “You”re Dingo Fence” actually means.

billyboy915, true. I have fallen for this question before and learned the hard way!

David Heinz, as an Aussie I would love it be the Dingo Fence, but I have just looked and it is around 5000km while the Great Wall is saying over 20,000km.

mescall, Yes it is. Alaska is the Northern most, Westernmost, and Easternmost US state. It is Easternmost because some of the Aleutian Islands cross 180° of longitude, putting them in the Eastern hemisphere, which is East of the Western Hemisphere wherein Maine is situated.

The question about the longest distances. Quiz club says The Great Wall of China but that is not true. The Dingo Fence in Australia is longer.

13/15 tricky, but thanks for answers.

The Eastern most state of the USA is not Alaska!

14/15.....great quiz ..and thanks for the answers..
