If Illinois has 12.83 million people, Pennsylvania has 12.70 million people and Ontario has 12.32 million people wouldn't Pennsylvania be closest to Ontario in population and Illinois 2nd closest?

Thanks for the catch - that was a weird typo, as the figure I have for Ontario's population is 13.21 million. I've now fixed it. (The answers were right, I just put the wrong number in the explanation.)

This should be a forced order quiz, otherwise it's effectively just a "name all the US state abbreviations" quiz. I've never seen anything like this before. It's a very interesting way to compare.

interesting. i'm still fascinated by the fact that you could fit the population of canada into california, too. if you want to be that crowded.
