It was founded in 1881 after the discovery of silver, and at its peak, it had over 500 mines and a population of more than 1,200 people. However, as the silver deposits dwindled, the town was abandoned by the early 1900s. Today, Calico is a well-preserved state historic park, offering visitors a chance to explore old buildings, mine shafts, and learn about the mining history that once made it a thriving community in the desert.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Bodie"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Calico"},{"right":"no","answer":"Tombstone"},{"right":"no","answer":"Virginia City"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1865,"title":"Deserts of the united states","slug":"deserts-of-the-united-states"},{"id":1868,"title":"Mojave Desert","slug":"mojave-desert"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/13560","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13560"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=13560"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=13560"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
