Basic Civics Test

This short Civics test will show how much or how little you know about this important subject. Civics is the branch of political science concerned with how government works and what the rights, duties and responsibilities of citizens are.
In a typical high school Civics class of the 1960's, you would've learned enough to pass this quiz with flying colors. Along the way, a good Civics teacher might've included a bit of history, as well. Likewise, this Civics test includes some questions along these lines. If you attended school in the 1960s, there's a good chance you will ace this Civics quiz. Are you smarter than a 1960's 9th grader? :) If you enjoy voting, three POLLS follow the quiz! :)
