Since I could easily look this up, I won’t.

  1. Zeus. There were a lot of those. Although Zeus might be the summer solstice and Poseidon the winter. Good question.
  2. Probably A.
  3. This one I know, or think I know. It’s either Macy’s or Coke, I’m going with Coke because of the color scheme.
  4. Probably a Northeastern state that was very Christian…Mass?
  5. Probably Germany
