...but be serious, how many Europeans can link all the American states to their capitals. I know I wouldn't be able to name them all.
America is a single country though with some states, unlike Europe which is a lot of countries close together with their own states.

Still, its quite surprising how ignorant some people can be. Is there something like a geography class over there? If so, someone should make some amends to the curriculum as it certainly does not seem to be effective.

It kind of makes you wonder when you say "Let's go to war with Afghanistan" how many people actually knew what Afghanistan is and where it is located.
