New quiz tests general knowledge: encyclopedia or clueless?
Latvian outlet "Latvijas Avīze" has published a 12-question quiz designed to let readers gauge how broad their general knowledge really is.

The news portal la.lv has released a new entertainment quiz aimed at anyone curious to test their general knowledge. The outlet notes that many people have, at some point, wanted proof that they are smarter than the average citizen.
How the quiz works
Participants answer a set of 12 questions. Once finished, the quiz evaluates the responses and delivers a verdict, placing the participant at one of two extremes — either a "walking encyclopedia" with wide-ranging knowledge, or someone closer to "clueless," with room to improve.
The quiz sits in the outlet's regular quiz section and is designed as a quick, casual activity that requires no preparation. Its purpose is to give readers a lighthearted way to measure their knowledge against others and either confirm or challenge their sense of their own general knowledge.
The outlet has not disclosed specifics about the individual questions or their subject matter — the quiz is available online for anyone who wants to try it themselves.
