How many History Buffs Have We Here?

To Commemorate the battle between the CSS Alabama and the USS Kearsarge,the Civil War preservation Trust designated its first official historic site outside the United States.The site is located;
A) Cherbourg, France
B) Havana,Cuba
C) Manila,Philippines
D) Toronto,Quebec
This is a 15 point question,and no fair looking up on the web.

LoL! I just saw it on the History channel last month. I was so sure I knew the answer that I looked it up.
Apparently I didnt pay very good attention because I guessed wrong.
