Here’s tonight’s Final Jeopardy answer and question for Monday, March 6, 2017:

Final Jeopardy! category: EUROPE

Final Jeopardy! clue/answer: These 2 countries whose names start with the same 4 letters were part of different countries until the 1990s

(correct response beneath the contestants)

Today’s contestants:

Ernie Sykes, a high school English teacher from Nolensville, Tennessee

Alison Maguire-Powell, a middle school band director from Denton, Texas

Rob Liguori, a research editor from Brooklyn, New York (4-day total: $72,601)

Rob Liguori made it onto Page 1 of our ToC Tracker with his 4th win on Friday, but his chances aren’t good. He’ll need a fifth win today to really solidify his ToC chances!

Looking to find out who won Jeopardy! tonight? Today’s Jeopardy! results will go up on this page late afternoon, with full stats early evening. They will be seen in the comments section at the bottom of this page.

Slovakia was a part of Czechslovakia, and Slovenia was a part of Yugoslavia. Another fun fact: Their flags are a white-blue-red tricolor, defaced with a coat of arms!
