Nevada ranks 46th in the U.S. in terms of charitable giving, a WalletHub survey found.

Yes, many of us in Nevada had this past Friday off for Nevada Day (observed), but the true Nevada Day is October 31, the anniversary of when Nevada gained statehood in 1864.

So how well do you know the Silver State?

Nevada has a wide variety of unique state symbols. Test your knowledge below, view your score, and then scroll through your results for explanations of each symbol featured.
