Who discovered America? First of all, let’s not ignore the fact that the Native Americans arrived in the Americas about 23,000 years ago. Even if these history questions just focused on the first Europeans to arrive, Christopher Columbus still can’t claim the glory. About 400 years before Columbus sailed the ocean blue, Viking Leif Eriksson landed in Canada. (Don't try arguing that his trip doesn't count because it was in Canada and not the United States.) Columbus didn’t set foot on any of the 50 states during any of his four trips either—only Caribbean Islands and Central and South America. |

When was the Declaration of Independence signed? The United States celebrates its independence on the Fourth of July, but that’s not actually when the document was signed. The country declared its independence on July 2, 1776, which John Adams wrote would become 'the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America.' The final draft was completed and approved by Congress two days later (July 4) but wasn’t signed until Aug. 2. |

Who invented the automobile? French inventor Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot created a steam-powered vehicle in 1769, but it couldn’t even go three miles per hour. Henry Ford wasn’t the first to invent a gasoline-powered automobile (that was Karl Benz in 1886) or even to create an American car on an assembly line (that was Ransom Olds in 1901), but Ford’s Model T did dominate the market for reliability, simplicity, and affordability. |

Dab some ketchup (yes, ketchup) on a cloth and rub it all over your copper. Rinse it in warm water and voilà: good as new. |

It may be covered with ice, but Antarctica gets only 6.5 inches of rain or snow per year, making it the continent with the lowest annual rainfall by far. On the other end of the spectrum, Lloro, Colombia, absorbs more than 500 inches of rainfall per year. |

Water doesn't smell like anything, so why does rain produce a pleasant aroma after it falls? Well, it's because of a molecule called geosmin, created by soil-dwelling bacteria. When rain falls, it creates air pockets, which contain small amounts of geosmin. The rain traps and then releases these air pockets, dispersing geosmin into the air, where it's free to travel to human sniffers. The smell of rain even has a name: 'Petrichor.' |

In a single day in July 1979, Tropical Storm Claudette dropped a whopping 43 inches of rain on the small Texas town of Alvin, just south of Houston. Alvin held the record for the most rainfall in the United States in 24 hours—until 2018. In April of that year, a rain gauge in the Hawaiian town of Hanalei recorded 49.69 inches of rainfall in one day |

Anyone who has to take a prescription medication every day can attest to the fact that opening and closing a childproofed bottle is extremely frustrating. But if you take a prescription medication and you don’t have any young ones running around the house to worry about, all you have to do is flip your cap to un-childproof it for good. |

The color is officially called 'national school bus glossy yellow,' and it's standard across the United States. Back in 1939, a conference funded by the Rockefeller Foundation attracted transportation officials from all-then 48 states, who came together and agreed on a number of safety standards for school buses, including the color. Yellow is very visible, even in early-morning or late-evening light, and black lettering on a yellow background is easy to read. It took until 1984 for all the school buses in the country to meet the standard |

Bakers in medieval England are thought to have come up with the idea of tossing in an extra roll or loaf of bread to make sure their customers were happy. While 12 eggs are easy to quantify, baked goods can turn out all different sizes because of differences in how much the dough rises. Plus, many bakers didn't have accurate scales to weigh their flour, according to Britannica. Being accused of cheating could result in punishments including flogging, so bakers hedged their bets and included 13 (or sometimes 14) items to make sure nobody complained. |
