 What's up everyone, Takedown here. Welcome to part two of my series and today we're going to find out if an American can pass the American citizenship test. So today I have my American friend with me. He's going to take this test and we're going to see how he does. This test is going to consist of 20 multiple choice questions. Let's get right into this. Okay. So we're going to be doing the American citizenship test. Jack is going to be taking it. I'm basically going to read off the questions to him because he cannot see them and I'll read off the options. He's going to tell me which one to choose and that's basically how we're going to do it. The good thing about this test is it's actually going to tell you if you're right or wrong right away instead of like the Canadian one where you have to wait until the end to find out your results. So, Jack, are you ready? Yeah, let's do it man. All right. So this is going to be 20 questions, shouldn't take too long. Question number one, name one state that borders Canada. We have South Dakota, Rhode Island, Oregon, Maine. Second one goes with Maine. Maine? All right. Let's find out. That one was correct. All right. Okay. So second question, there are 13 original states. Name three options are Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, New York, Kentucky, Georgia, Washington, Oregon, California, or Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida. Okay. So Georgia is definitely one of the main problems is I could name three. But that doesn't necessarily mean that that's a choice. Well, if you said Georgia is one, right? Yeah, Georgia is definitely one of the first 13. There's only one that has Georgia listed. Right, but Virginia is also one of the first. And I don't think that Virginia, one of the ones you read back were Virginia and Georgia in the same category. No, clearly different. Do you want to read the ones that have Georgia and Virginia in them? Yeah. Okay. So Georgia, Kentucky, or New York, or Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida. You know, it's definitely not Florida because that was a Spanish territory. It's the history lesson taught you anything. I definitely wouldn't do it. Sorry. There's another one that has Virginia. Must have missed it. Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina. Yeah. That's my option. That one there is my band. I completely missed it until I looked back at the question. And that one is correct. Okay. Two for two. All right. When was the Constitution written? The options are 1789, 1787, 1776, 1790. Okay. So 1776 is wrong right off the bat because that was when the Declaration of Independence was written. See, I knew that one too. Not the Constitution. So that one's out. You said 1789. 87. Yeah, 89 and 87. Well, they don't really give you much margin for error. No, they do not. And also 1990. Yeah, no, absolutely not. Okay. If the Constitution wasn't written before the 90s, I feel like we as Americans would have bigger problems on our hands. But I'm going to go with 87. 87? 1787. You are correct. All right. What did the Declaration of Independence do? Give women the right to vote, freed slaves, declared our independence from France, declared our independence from Great Britain. That would be declared the independence from Great Britain. That is correct. Under our Constitution, some powers belong to the federal government. What is one power of the federal government? To provide schooling and education, to issue driver's licenses, to declare war, or to provide protection, a.k.a. the police. That's to declare war. That is correct. All right. When do we celebrate Independence Day? See, I would get this one wrong. June 30th, July 4th, March 4th, January 1st. That would be the little 4th of July, July 4th. Oh, wait. Independence Day. Wow. Okay. Yeah, I would have gotten that right if I actually read the question. I usually call it 4th of July. That's what caught me. Throw it off there. What is freedom of religion? You choose a religion, or you must choose a religion. No one can practice a religion. You can practice any religion or not practice a religion, or you can't choose the time you practice a religion. That would be you can practice or not practice whatever belief that you choose. Correct. What ocean is on the west coast of the United States? Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Seldren, which I don't think Seldren is an ocean. I didn't even know it was a word, but that's going to be your Pacific Ocean. It's on the west coast. That's what I was thinking too. If both the president and the vice president can no longer serve, who becomes president? This one actually only gives, oh no, it does give four options. Speaker of the House, Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of State, President Pro Tempor. That one doesn't even sound real. Okay, so number one, that last option is a real option. It's a real title. Now exactly what exactly they do, what their official duties are. I couldn't tell you. I'm going to go with Secretary of State, but I'm not confident in that answer. It was the Speaker of the House. I would have guessed the same thing you did. There are four amendments to the Constitution about who can vote, describe one of them. Citizens 18 and older. Citizens by birth only. Citizens 17 and older, or citizens with a job. That would be the citizens 18 and older. Correct. That was an easy one. I hate to tell you, but I got that one wrong when I was asked it earlier. What is the name of the national anthem? I probably don't even have to read the options to you. That would be the Skull Spangled Banner right there. Correct. I was going to read them off and I'm like, that one's an easy one. I don't know that one. I might as well just revoke my citizenship card. Next one, name the US war between the North and the South. War of 1812, World War I, Revolutionary War, Civil War. I didn't have to read them, I don't think. That was Civil War. Yeah. So first half was kind of tricky, these ones seemed faster paced. What is the supreme law of the land? The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, Articles of Confederation, or the Emanification Proclamation? I mispronounced the crap out of that. Okay, so the Articles of Confederation don't even exist anymore. The Declaration of Independence, all it did was basically declare our freedom. The Emancipation Proclamation was a speech given by Abraham Lincoln. So it doesn't even, you know, apply. I mean, it's the Constitution. And, you know, all in that, just in college. Okay, so Constitution, yes. Yes, so Constitution. The Federalist Papers supported the passage of the US Constitution. Name one of the Raiders, dear God. James Madison. Thomas Jefferson. John Adams. George Washington. Honestly, I think it was Madison. All right, is that the final answer? Yeah, if I had just bought one in, that would be my guess. Well, you were correct. The House of Representatives has how many voting members? 135, 100, 200, or 441. Okay, so we're talking about the House of Representatives. I know it's not 100, because 100 is the Senate. Because for the Senate formation, it's two senators from every state. But the House of Representatives is based on state population. Okay, so that means 400. It's gotta be... What are the ones that are above 100, 200? It's gotta be above 300. You have 441 or 435. They're close. Again, not much margin of error. I'm gonna go with 441. Okay. It was 435. It was close. That one. How old do citizens have to be to vote for president? I think you answered this in a previous question. So I don't even have to read it off, I don't think. It's 18. Yeah, we had a question that had that in it earlier. Name two national U.S. holidays. Valentine's Day and President's Day, Labor Day and Thanksgiving, April Fool's Day and Labor Day, or Citizenship Day and Columbus Day. Okay, so Thanksgiving was one, and what was the one with Thanksgiving? Labor Day. Yeah, that's it. That's it. You're really good, because that's the one I chose earlier. That is correct. Under our constitution, some powers belong to the states. What is one of the powers? Provide schooling and education, create an army, make treaties, coin or print money. That's a print, wait, hold on. See the problem is we're just now going over this and the court cases that surround this in class. Okay, see I did not get this question, but I know right away what it is, because it's very similar to how Canada does things this question. So I know it's not army, but there's every state can have their own army. Correct. What's another option? So it's not army. Provide schooling and education, make treaties. Yeah, no, that I don't know. I knew that one too. And then coin or print money. That's it, because I think that's a federal deal. I think so too. I'm good with the education. That is correct. That's what I was thinking when I read the question. What is, what ocean is on the east coast of the United States? Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, Indian. I think you know this one. It's the Pacific's on the west, and it's the Atlantic has to be on the east. You are right. That was a really easy one. And the last one, name one state that borders Canada. Wasn't this the first question? That was the first question. Correct. Oh God. Alright, let's review the results. First and last question is the same. Okay, so you got 85%. You got 17 out of the 20 questions right. That was really good. I did the Canadian citizenship test because I'm Canadian. That was the first episode of the series. And I only got 80% on that test. So you did better with your own country's citizenship test than I did. So that's really good. Did you expect to get that many? No, no. I mean, but a lot of it, there are quite a few that were probably wouldn't have gotten without studying. True. You know, being in the major that I am because I'm a political science major leaning to a legal background. So without having some of that education already under my belt, there's no way I would have gotten. That is true. I never even thought about it until you just said it. Like, yeah, what you're doing in school right now, it's very dis in a way. So I never even thought about it until after you just said it and thinking, we'll crap. Episode three is going to be me taking the American citizenship test. I already have that one recorded. That's why I mentioned it during this episode. And the fourth one is going to be Jack taking the Canadian citizenship test. We're going to leave this one here. Hope you guys did enjoy anything else you want to say, Jack.
