Didn’t get to these until late, but here they are.

1. I should know this word. I’m thinking it is to take control of. Vichy is after all a puppet government of the Nazi’s who are getting a little more independent than even I expected.
2. (b) guarding a convoy
3. Since the second flag is clearly Italy’s, I’ll say the first one is the flag of Ethiopia’s government in exile.
4. Sumatra, Java, and Dutch Borneo are three I can think of.
5. (d) an independent nation
6. The moon
7. (b) The War of the Roses association just seems right, otherwise this is just a guess.
8. I’d say Anglophobe.
9. I am not familiar with the Chaco War. Let’s guess Brazil and Bolivia.
10. I don’t know about the first one. Swope replaced Leahy as governor of Puerto Rico.
11. Sure, why not.
12. Ensign. (I’m glad I didn’t have to put anything in order this time)
13. 3/4th of 48. That would be 36.
14. (b) Joseph W. Martin, Jr.
15. Doesn’t this vary depending on where you are? I’ll guess 5 miles.
16. Belgium, Poland, Netherlands
17. That’s just a voice vote.
18. Highest to lowest, but I have no idea so here we go. (b) ambassador, (d) minister, (c) charge d’affaires, (a) envoy extraordinary
19. I’ll guess (c)
20. The Department of the Treasury.

Half credit for #1. The literal translation is wrong but the bottom line is correct.
Zero for #5.
Half credit for picking Brazil over Paraguay on #9.
Half credit for missing Virgin Islands on #10.
I'll give you 83% for missing by a mile on #15. Yeah, I know the question is ambiguous, but life isn't fair.
75% on #18. Only the mysterious envoy extraordinary was out of order.
Zero on #19.
All others correct.

-3.92 points, or 80% correct. Good job!
