That issue was noted on the FCG reflector. It falls in the "trick question" category:




Actually Fred, there was  some debate on this,

but the way the question is
worded, USA is correct.  There is a Revillagigedo
Island in Alaska (NA-041),
but the Mexican entity  is the Revillagigedo
*Islands* (or Archipelago).
Since the quiz question  asked about Revillagigedo
in singular, the correct
answer is USA. I suspect  most participants got
tripped up on that one! (I
sure did.)

One of the "ANSWERS" is incorrect.    Revillagigedo  (XE4) belongs to Mexico,
not the USA.
