Citizenship Exam

“Give me liberty or give me death!” was a famous quote by American revolutionary Virginian politician Patrick Henry. Many of us take for granted the freedom and power we have as citizens of the United States of America. One step to becoming a citizen is to pass an exam of 100 questions about civics, geography and history of the United States. Plus, the exam is NOT multiple choice. You must know the answers. So, let’s see how well YOU do as an American citizen… Can you get the answers to fill in the coords without using google? And what better place for this cache than Liberty Park!
