got all of them right. Samuel Adam's president of the Confederate states? I just totally guessed on about half of them.
I am thinking this is someone's idea of a joke. I just did it again with a different answer on all the questions got them all right.
I think Is it pointing out they don't teach history today?

The first question is either completely wrong (Jefferson Davis is not listed as an answer.) or worded very weirdly. I looked up the answer to the last two questions (Royal Proclamation) and I got it wrong, so the answer list they show on the thank you is not a grade it is only a review.
