There are those who call the 20th century, the American century. Well, maybe, maybe not. Still, there's no doubting the global effect of American culture between 1900 and 1999.

Here's a little test to check the depth of your knowledge of some key items of American culture. On the map above are various places associated with significant people or events.

On the question page, you'll find 40 of those people and events described. Your job: connect each question with a place on the map.

Probably the best way to do the test is to print either the map or the questions (or both), and proceed. If you print the map, be sure to set your printer for "landscape" orientation.

Many of the questions are fairly easy. A few will be difficult even for Americans. And some may be just a bit tricky. Good luck!
