33%
I obviously know little about the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
I'm pretty sure 33% is classed as 'little'.......... or maybe it's still worth a GCSE (tounge in cheek before any stressed parent with stressed teenagers gets on my back).

93%. To my shame I got the Act of the Union question wrong by 1, though I got a couple of lucky guesses right.

It's like the current Life In The UK test for immigration to the UK. Neither bear more than a distant relation to what real people in the UK need to know, whether you were born here or immigrated. They're both nothing more than trivia quizzes.

93%. I missed the Act of Union by one year. To be honest, I did guess at the car registration though.

Re: How well do you know the United Kingdom?
Does this quiz really matter if you are now living in Canada?
If you have UK citizenship then who really gives a toss as they can't take it away from you if you fail the quiz.
Im betting there are people who have lived in a city or county in England and never been outside it. I bet the odd one also asks if they need a passport to go to Wales or Scotland though the Scotland one could become a reality if they win their independence vote and introduced passport entry rules.
