How Delawarean are you?

Delaware is variously known as the Small Wonder, the Diamond State, and the Home of Tax Free Shopping. It's frequently overshadowed by its larger neighbors, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. I95, the major highway through the state, will take you through it in maybe fifteen minutes. If you blink, you missed it.

But despite its small size, there's rather a lot to know about Delaware. This quiz will help sort out whether you really know a lot about Delaware, or whether you were one of the millions of people each year who simply pass through on I95.
