I believe the questions on this site are so heavily weighted toward the U.S. because so many of the questions are submitted by Americans. Why not submit some questions of your own about your own corner of the world to broaden the appeal of the site?

Leila Alberici, Please generate some questions focused on the UK. I'd love to see more. I might miss more answers, but I'd learn a lot of new stuff. Same to all Brits, Aussies and Kiwis and other nationalities. Please create questions from around the world for us.

I really enjoy these quiz questions but wish they weren't so focussed on the US as living in the UK I don't know a lot about US history or geography.

I’m not concerned that question generated are by and large U.S based or any other part of the globe for that matter. Even if I wrong guess them it all good trivia. Thanks you compilers I appreciate your efforts

Vermont might have low population, but we are a first in many things! Many times we have lead the nation to greatness! I just love my state, even tho I am a flat lander! I married a true Vermont and my two children are Vermont born!

Surprised that Montepelier was least populated. I know that Montana has low population and assumed that even though Vermont is a small state it would be more populated. You know what is said about assumptions.......l..
