Americans were asked to place european countries on a map

[Siiem]

Some reporter asked a few Harvard students about the capital of Canada. No one knew, which is sad... Respect your better 'murica.

[Overdriven]

I can get most of the main ones. But I'll begin to struggle around parts of Eastern Europe that's for sure.

[LordBerenger]

so you could place every country correctly on a blank map?

I can with the exception of Africa. All states in US and all countries with the exception of plantation land Africa.

Wow someone did pretty good.

inb4 all serbs downvote you for posting that one.

[Joseph Porta]

as if I could place all the states correctly 

States aren't countries.

if you'd take the whole western continent I wouldn't even be able to must be like 20 countries aswell, if you only take NA it would be like half, i dropped geography just after german and French, can't stan dit \

WTF I never knew I had auto capitalize for country names though it's weird german doesn't capitalize(i dont even know if this is a word tbh) Germany does capitalize French capitalizes and france doesn't. derp

Turkey isn't part of Europe - that's the mistake the creator of that map made. Of course people are getting confused!

Got 25320 on medium. The middle east and northern South America got me.

Ye and some countries are superimportant arent they. A single US state that has a population, productivity and size of atleast 3 notsoknown European countries is clearly less significant.

I always cocked up the Slovakia, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria etc part in geographytests. I mean ffs they even sound alike.

Yes, it is less significant. It's still a part of the US. We aren't learning the states of India either just because they are populous.

That's so ignorant, I don't even.

[Tibe]

That's so ignorant, I don't even.

Give me a break man, I really tried at that time.

Simply because it wields the title of "country" and not "state" it suddenly matters more? We dont learn the states of India because it doesnt really matter to us. Same goes for some EU countries and americans. Its really not that important for them to know this.

Got 25320 on medium. The middle east and northern South America got me.

36559 on medium, only ones I got wrong was accidentally placing Belgium on France, and various tiny shit island chains/islands, admittedly I'd have guessed wrong on every single middleamerican country besides Mexico, and I wasn't 100% sure what was Venezuela and what was Columbia.

[Herkkutatti666]

37k on difficult, lost on south africa after pressing Lesotho accidentally 

[the real god emperor]

Those small islands are really annoying. thats my score on medium
