I took this a couple of weeks ago and surprised myself by only missing number 12. Some of it was due to a recent interest in South American conflicts and South American Mausers and some of it was dumb luck.
How well do you know Latin America?

Well that was humbling. Apparently, I don't know Jack about South America; missed 6, 70%.

Re: How well do you know Latin America?
I got 17 of 20 just guessing.
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Whew! Goes to show you boys I never did care about anything south of the border. 12 out of 20 and that was about 50% guesswork.-------Sixgun

Re: How well do you know Latin America?
I managed to get 19 of 20, surprisingly, making one or two wild guesses of course! Interesting quiz. Thanks for posting.
Re: How well do you know Latin America?
I got 16 of 20. I am not too embarassed.

I made 18 out of 20, missed the last country to win independence and named the wrong city on the west coast.
