Hope you enjoy this quiz. Of course there is no easy way to look things like this up, so if anyone knows another good set of anagrams for this quiz, leave a comment.

waaaay to vague! the Tiber is a more major river in italy, so u have to be more specific, and no one knows the cities of those countries.

I got sixteen answers correct, yet the results page says that no one's gotten more than 10-11 correct. Also, some of the answers I got right (like Zlin, Sunda, Asmara, Linz, Samara and Patras) have 0% next to them on the results page.

I like how more people got Ob than Bo, though you have only one other choice of anagram...

@ dodsface: not all quizzes have to be easy. This is a quiz where you have to think in stead of random trying. And 'a major river in Italy' is a good hint, because there are a few of them. What would be you your hint? A river in Italy starting with 'Arn'?

I had no idea what an anagram even was until I took this quiz! Thanks!

Great quiz. I'm British and I didn't even know "the Orkneys" was frowned upon, until you prompted me to look it up. In return, here's another anagram: Commune in Landes, France / State in the Arabian peninsula. Mano/Oman. Lame but true!

Yeah, that would be too lame, it's got a population of 95.

@D3nn1s - To be fair, the overwhelming majority of people who got Ob also got Bo, and some people may have typed in Ob without even realizing that they were given credit for an answer.

Good quiz. I managed to get 19, but partly because I grew up in Rhode Island, so that last one was a gift. lol

(Yet another) nice quiz. I effectively got two free points - typing Bogota gave me Bo, and from there the anagram was kind of obvious.
