There is a Birmingham in Alabama, Iowa, Michigan, and Pennsylvania to name a few.

It is!

Birmingham might be the second-biggest city in the UK, but is it also a place in America?

There is no County Durham in America, but there is a Durham in Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine to name a few.

Ramsgate in Kent, England is totally unique!

No, there isn't!

Ramsgate is a popular seaside town over here, but is there one in America?

There is a Hull in Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin.

Yes, there is!

We all love Hull in East Yorkshire, but is there a Hull across the pond?

Sorry but there's only one Yeovil, and it's over here in Somerset, England.

There is no Yeovil, USA!

Perhaps you've heard of Yeovil in the UK, but have you heard of Yeovil, USA?

Lastly, we have a Warwick, but does America?

Oh dear, you poor chap! You don't seem to know your Birminghams from your birmingHAMs. Keep practising and one day you'll possess a spiffing knowledge of transatlantic geography.

Not bad, squire. You may need a little further elucidation on the difference between Country Durham and Durham, Connecticut. Maybe try again?

Bloody hell, that was smashing effort! You really know your British counties from your America states. Huzzah to you!
