It wasn't exactly that it ended on June 19th, but that was the day the news arrived in Texas. It's kind of a big deal here.

Parts are, yes. There are also mountains, forests, rolling hills, prairies, and beaches. You should come by for a visit and we'll show you around. Our state motto is "Friendship" after all.

LOL. A quiz about Texas was too "American centric". If it were a quiz about Zambia, would it be too "African-centric"? If it were a quiz about Rome, would it be too "Italo-centric"?

Might want to switch the order on longhorn and most valuable sports franchise - starting to type "Cowboys" hits "breed of cattle" when you get the first 3 letters.

Tried "bull riding", "bronco riding", "cow tying"... I must have come up with almost a dozen descriptions of a rodeo without hitting the word itself.

Please accept "Spanish" for "Of the six flags to fly over Texas,

which came first?" It really sounds like it is asking for an adjective. Thank you!
