That one is actually a deceptive question. The Italian people welcomed the allied troops as liberators and the US viewed Russia as a clear enemy (they were allies in name only, really) as both sides marched towards Berlin and Russia was annexing everything they could. So, yes the textbook answer is Russia because they were one of the Allied powers, but just before the end of the war allegiances changed.

Also the Vietnam War was a pretty big deal, with a big chunk of 60s/70s culture being a reaction to it (protests, hippies, peace movement, many rock and folk songs about it, famous movies, etc).

Beesley made a comment when trying to figure out what power the states had instead of the federal government. He wording implied that the federal government gives the states powers. This is not the case at all. In the US, when they wrote the Constitution in 1787, one of the main issues hindering it being ratified by the states was because for the federal government to have power the states would have to surrender certain powers to that government. Therefore, state powers are not derived from the national government, but rather the inverse is the case. Also, on the whole, government power is derived from the bottom up. In other words, government powers are derived from the people. The government's job is to guarantee the people's rights, not to give the people rights as is done in England with power derived from the monarch and rights given to the people via Parliament. This is a key difference between a republican government and a constitutional monarchy.

I am on the same page. These two are amazing individuals. They clearly have the American spirit, if they didn't, they would not do these videos. Just the same, I would sponsor you two as well. Just know that I am a patriotic Polish American living close to Nashville, Tennessee though, hahahaha, I love the American South even though I was born in Chicago, mainly for obvious conservative values.

“Bear arms” is that the animal 😂😂😂😂😂😂 love you Millie!

Have you ever watched Jay Leno's "Jay Walking "? If you have you probably have already figured out that many Americans wouldn't be able to pass its citizenship test.

Both of you two are beautiful, and adorable 🥰 as Star Trek Dr Spock would say 🖖🏼Live Long and Prosper🖖🏼 Millie is in the driver seat

Dr. Spock was a real pediatrician. Mr. Spock was a Star Trek character.

This was a really great video! Very fun to watch! In case you were curious, the 1st amendment has 5 freedoms: freedom of speech, press, religion, assembly, and petition. Typically you will here these all lumped under "freedom of speech" but those are the 5 components of what is considered speech in the constitution. You guys should have definitely known who Eisenhower was, or at least have known that he was supreme allied commander in WW2...a fact that your Montgomery was not too pleased about lol. Maybe it's because in the UK you have a lot more history to cover, from Rome, the Viking age, the Norman Conquest, etc. but I'm honestly suspired that you didn't learn more about WW2 in school. Invading Italy was actually Churchill's idea. I have to ask, not sounding to be rude, but do you know who Mussolini was? I'm also a bit of a history buff, so I'm probably biased in my assumptions of other people's knowledge lol. But I am curious on what you guys learn about WW2 in school.

I'm a 49 year old American and learned this stuff when I was about 14 or 15. I got 15 of the 20 right. It's been a long time! But I guess I'm still worthy of this great country.

_"Bear arms. Is that like the actual animal?"_ For the time being you're my favorite clown.

I am loving your videos! The two of you are so much fun to watch. If you want to learn more about the way the U.S. government is supposed to work, I suggest that you learn the way many of us who were kids back in the day did, by watching Schoolhouse Rock videos that were on in between Saturday morning cartoons. Here are a couple of suggestions: the Preamble to the Constitution kzread.info/dash/bejne/apOC3LyvlNbIh6w.html or my favorite, I’m just a Bill (about how laws are passed in the U.S.) at kzread.info/dash/bejne/pq2ZrJdun5arnJM.html . School House Rock also taught us grammar (Conjunction Junction), science (A victim of gravity) and math (My hero zero). Keep up the good work!

Love you guys! I'm curious, instead of the US citizenship test, do you think you'd be able to pass the UK one? I'd imagine that most Americans, if they had to take the UK test, would do far worse than you did with ours. And yeah, the Secretary of State one can be confusing. A lot of people don't know this so don't feel too bad but by definition, state just means a nation with a government so for example, Germany is a state in the EU (cus Germany has its own government) or Florida is a state in the US (cus Florida has its own State government). Again, the context is what matters. Stay awesome!

When President Reagan was shot and the Vice President was out of town, the Secretary of State got a lot of flack for going on TV saying "I'm in control now." It was meant as a signal to cold war enemies not to exploit a perceived a time of vulnerability for an attack.

I've taken the UK test, just for kicks.It is much longer and more difficult than this one.

I would like to see you do the map state quiz. Millie: Alexander Hamilton really? You two make my day, Keep up the good work.

The way the audio kept cutting out made it seem like Millie was cussing up a storm 😂

Don't feel bad, you did better than many U.S. citizens. I've seen videos where they randomly ask people citizenship questions, and it is astounding what they don't know. Yes, I am a U.S. citizen, and I'm not putting down the U.S. I'm just saying many U.S. citizens need a bit more knowledge about their country.

Sorry, but if you took this test a year ago you had a leg up on the answers. So for a first time taking the test I think Millie did amazing. Give Millie the test in another year and I bet that she will ace this test. That girl is very smart . Millie you are amazing and I wish you both were U.S. citizens ( if that is what you want ). But you might want to change your minds because there is a whole lot of crazy shit going on in this country right now. I am an American and I wish I could be a citizen of the U.K. The U.K. has a wonderful and fascinating history. I am addicted to the British History Channel and I love British TV programs. Love to the both of you from America. Americans love the British people ❤.

The one thing that scares me right now, more for my kids than for me individually, is the national debt surpassed $30 trillion....at some point, the US federal government cannot sustain that. And I surely hate the prospect of my father's old country....seeing that President Putin of Russia is at Poland's doorstep militarily....

Loved this, guys 😂

Christmas has been so commercialized and also has Santa for those that are non-believers and there is only one reason Easter exists. That's my guess as to why they are treated differently.

We do not have Easter Monday and your mail still gets delivered on Good Friday i.e. no federal holiday(s) for Easter like in U.K. where it's a big holiday.

Nobody will come for you. I guarantee if you gave me a test about the UK, I'd fail that!

"Bear arms' is about the actual animal had me LMAO

I'm proud of you! I've lived here my whole life and I didn't even know a couple of those answers...and yes I want to see you do the CNN one

The Constitution is the supreme law of the land the Supreme Court is what holds the Constitution the Declaration of Independence was our way of telling England we were out but it doesn't give the law a just declares we will no longer be part of England the Constitution is the law of the land in the Supreme Court is supposed to judge all cases off of the Constitution

The WW2 one was crazy. Thought for sure you’d know that, being from a country that fought in it. And I don’t think anyone would describe that as a war starting between Germany and England. Perhaps a video oversimplifying WW2 or something is in order next…

Millie saying the Speaker of the House is like a receptionist made me laugh! Right now our Speaker of the House (Pelosi) is more like the wicked witch of the west from the Wizard of Oz! 🤔

The Speaker of the house question shows just how much trouble we are in over here, we have a numpty geriatric patient as president, a cackling assistant and a Chinese sympathizer as Speaker.
