    I hope you noticed that the second one was an ironic response.

    Also note that I wouldn't expect six year old children anywhere to know exactly where they live and where every country in the world is. I myself couldn't tell you where Zimbabwe is on a map without any markers. To be honest, a lot(not all, mind you) of my geographical knowledge about Europe comes from playing Total War games.
    Yeah, we did all that in school, even had to learn all german mountains and rivers etc. but I forgot that again in about a week. Fighting over the strategic map in a game means you look at it for hours, actually enjoy looking at it and thus learn a lot more. Especially because you actually invest some time in it. Now if I gave you a blank map of the US, could you show me where Iowa is?

    Yep, but only if it isn't one of these magical maps that warp you to it.

    Okay, maybe I'm just stupid.

    Exactly. People joke so much about US public knowledge of world geography, but quite a few would struggle to locate most states in the US or almost any country outside the EU.

    Although: "Holland? That's in Denmark, right?" on holiday stung a little.
