WASHINGTON (AP) - What city, divided by a river of the same name, was the imperial capital of Vietnam?
The answer to this question — Hue — won 14-year-old Caitlin Snaring from Redmond, Wash., a $25,000 college scholarship Wednesday at the 19th annual National Geographic Bee. Caitlin is only the second girl to win in the bee's history.
"I don't know why more girls aren't interested in geography," she told reporters after winning the championship round. "I wanted a girl winner this year."
