The way I was 3/4 right... Porche actually worked for Daimler-Benz right before the VW bug project. Close!

MA
DE
RI
NY
VT
NH
NJ
PA
VA
MD
CT
ME

Am I close? I actually have no idea. I'm just starting at the top of the coast and going down. Until I got to VA/MD. I had to look at a map and had forgotten ME/CT. Still leaves one. Carolina?

These questions are misleading. Hitler indeed designed the Bug and collaborated with Porsche to build it. Invented I guess is a relative term. No worries....challenges this old brain!

I can't think about the original colonies without looking on a map so I'll bow out of today's question.

Yep! I need a map too, so can't answer this one.

Looking at a regular (current day!) map won't give you an answer. For one thing, not all of the 50 states were states then. It might help, or not. I see which one I missing after looking at the colony map. Ah.

Nooooo idea. I'm Canadian - that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

MA CT RI
NY PA NJ
MD DE VA
NC GA SC
and either VT or NH
my guess is NH

Blfenton, I figure we Canadians can sit this one out! LOL

No no. The Canadians have to answer what the original 13 provinces were. (wait how many are there?)

You all are making me laugh! Too funny!!!!!

Massachusetts
Connecticut
Maine
Rhode Island
Delaware
Maryland
Virginia
South Carolina
New York
New Jersey
Pennsylvania
New Hampshire
North Carolina

Bob there are 13; we got a new territory a few years ago.

So there are now 10 provinces and 3 territories. :-)
