I really want to check with Google but will wait until you post the answers.
Crossing my fingers!
LOL, it's a fun quiz.
Trivia. i dislike it. Those make you think.
I don't know the right answers but I can guarantee that the obvious answer is not the right answer. Those are trick questions.
The U.S. History teacher at our school gives this quiz to his students on the first day every year! LOL! How funny that it showed up here
; )

1) The conflict during that period lasted over 116 years, however there were short peace periods.
2) Panama?
3) I'm guessing it's not a cat, so, maybe a pig? a goat?
4) October. Final answer.
5) I'm not sure, but I don't think they're made from real camel hair.
6) Dogs.
7) George.
8) Oh good grief I don't know! Fine, I'll roll with purple.
9) Otherwise known as kiwis, Chinese gooseberries are from New Zealand.
10) I think they're actually orange or red.
Thanks! This was fun!

I'm going to guess 'b' on everything. That method seemed to work okay in college.
I'm so not a Trivia person. Only got two right!
I confess, I didn't get any. I relied on the immediate response method. I should have taken Dana's advice. B is the correct answer.
