Well?

I knew 11 PM's. (Some are repeated)

I can find Austria on a map. Does that count?

I know 13 PM's, mostly just in the last 50 years, but I also remember the main PM from each world war as well as the first PM and the second quiz is wrong since there are 10 territories, not 2.

7. Well, 8, but one repeat. Yeh. I only remember the last 3, plus 2 of the 3 WWII PMs, the one who disappeared and the one who was sacked. :shame:

I got one. Hard for me to believe there has never been an Ozzie PM named "Jones," "Bond" or "Franklin." I even tried the old medieval professional standbys: Thatcher, Smith, Cooper, Butler or Cook. Gah!

I tried to remember "Rudd" for a few minutes and the gave up...

Only got 3 territories, but I sat their guessing "northern" "southern" "West" "south" "southwestern" etc for quite a while and just never got the right combo I guess

You didn't get the two who are having a public spat?

I got all the states. Or minus one, I couldn't get the name of Canberra / Federal District correct.


I'm not even going to attempt Australian PM's. Rudd and what's-this-woman's-name is about it I think. :laugh4:

Ditto. I tried any combination of Canberra, Administrative, Central and Territory but didn't get it.

Someone has commented on the page to say that you should accept ACT, and that you forgot Jervis Bay Territory. pevergreen how could you?

Australian Capital Territory.

The people should count themselves lucky I included Tasmania. :laugh4:

It really should just be New Zealand's western island.

I got 14 names correct. I was going to try "Cook" then I thought "Nah, that would be a massive coincidence." How wrong I was. I haven't even heard of several of the immediately pre and post war.

I only knew 3 pms, recognized a few more when I got the answers. But I knew all the states

I only got half the states right, and forget the prime-ministers: I'm not into international Cockney history :clown:

the animals and Aborigines though a what I really care for; the former for the uniqueness, the latter for the culture they have.
