I would tend to agree with that.
I had a professor who would put up a slide at conferences saying he's from
the University of Delaware. Now, Delaware is a state that isn't even big
enough to have its own telephone area code (aka "city code"). So he'd say
"It's about halfway between Philadelphia and Baltimore. If you don't know
where they are, it's halfway between New York and Washington DC. If you
don't know where they are, we're from America." :-)

Vaduz is the capital of Liechtenstein. Liechtenstein is a country in
Europe with almost 35000 inhabitants and an area of 160km^2. In
contrast: Delaware 800000+ inhabitants and 6452 km^2.
Europe is the western part of Eurasia, it is north of Africa. Either
west or east from North America.

Although technically not mine, I can choose from three and one for which
the test won't work. Then again I also have a wife. What is missing is a
girlfriend or I would have had a full house.
