It wasn't even the capital of Britania.
Trying? You wound me deeply ;) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Ask the kid at the Burger King at Main and Baseline to do it if he is still there. He asked me, "Sir, can you please settle an argument? Is Puerto Rico the 51st or 52nd state?" The President is a fink. |

Correct. I chose a county that we used for a state name How about this province? |

I think the point was that it is difficult to make fun of Brits who can't label American states when most Americans have massive trouble with British counties, and are very limited with the 10 Canadian provinces (and 3 territories) and their capitals Or to ask people to name the 13 states then Americans should know the original 4 provinces of the Confederation. Alas, a majority of Americans cannot name the capital of Canada. |
