Is this really true? Or a joke? It has to be a joke right?

So out of 320 million Americans twenty five are geographically challenged. I'm sure the same can be said of any country. What's your point?0

To be honest, we no longer need to know where The Netherlands is. We have Colorado.0

1. Some of those answers were funny as hell.
2. Who care? Can you fill in a blank map of the US and Canada?0 -
I love history, and geography. So I am pretty good at country placement and recognition. Some areas
change a lot....which makes it tough, however. I.e. Central Africa. But Europe is fairly simple.0 -
I'm from England & I probably wouldn't be able to name most of the Eastern European countries in terms of location!0

I wonder how many non US citizens could locate Iowa on a blank US map...or Delaware.
I'm pretty well traveled and would have issues locating any number of countries on a blank map. Most maps I look at have the name of the country on it and that is sufficient...there's not really any compelling reason for me to study the entire world map in order to identify every single country in the off chance that someone gives me a blank map and tells me to find the Ukraine.
I'm not really sure what the point of the post is.0 -

I agree with this to a point...
While its true that the US is one big country, we do have several distinct cultures and those culture vary greatly. And there is a large variance among state governments.0 -

So, in other words, you would just know "USA". Got it.0 -

Homogeneous?
Seriously?0 -
I couldn't do Europe very well unless it's a country I've been too. I think I could do a US map but the Midwest states give me trouble..... It's amazing to see how much we forget from school or what is NOT being taught in school these days. Very amusing thanks for the laugh.0

Well, as you know, only one European country settled in the US.0 -
I just did that test and failed miserably. However I was able to get the countries I have visited.... Man Europe is hard lol.0
