Cobb Government and Civics: a weekly quiz

Graphic representing a civics quiz

We run quizzes nearly every day in the Cobb County Courier. The topics rotate, and cover everything from government to entertainment.

This quiz, Cobb Government and Civics, will be a recurring topic, run every Tuesday. The answer links below are a little different than our normal quizzes, in that some of the links will send you to other quizzes to get a more in-depth exploration of the answer. In fact, on this quiz, four of the five links send you to another quiz.

The intent of these quizzes is not only to find out how much our readers already know about the county, but to educate them.

Informed citizens have a much better chance of engaging productively with the community, and so a quiz on government and civics is a good way to encourage citizen participation by fostering a knowledge of how government works.

If you’d like the quiz every day, you can subscribe to the Cobb County Courier newsletter using the link below. It’s free and includes a roundup of the latest local news, plus the daily version of the quiz.
