Technically the Anacostia is the only river running through DC. The Potomac just defines part of the city limits. Otherwise good quiz.

The Parana, isn't an alternate name, just it is one of the two rivers that forms the estuary of the Rio de La Plata

It rather depends where you are starting from. The Davis strait would be another option.

Correction: "Highest coastal mountain chain named for a Danish explorer". The answer is correct, but the mountain the chain was named after, was named BY a Danish explorer (Vitus Bering), not FOR.
