Although the test covers U.S. history from the FirstAmericans to the present, there are fewer questions on the earlyperiod:• 20 percent from the First Americans through 1789,• 40 percent from 1790 to 1898, and• 40 percent from 1899 to the present.Don’t expect much on the most recent ten years though.
