Irrelevant.
1) Because students represent the education system in that country and we are talking about simple things that are teached worldwide, not nanotechnology.
2) Small nations? Their ancestry is from those ''small nations'' , plus, we aren't talking about Lichtenstein and San Marino here.
3) Country =/= State.
4) So ? :picard2:
Still better than the average European student. And a greater wit too.
i./Were they primary, junior, or secondary school students without learning disabilities? Again, twenty students doesn't reflect all 324 million people in the US. :picard1:
ii./ Why should people care where their long-dead caveman ancestors lived thousands and thousands of years ago? :confused: Everyones ancestry stems from Africa. What matters is the present moment of time, not the long-dead past.
iii./ EU governed states with unelected foreign EU Presidents making most of the laws for Europeans are hardly reflective of independent nations anymore. MEP's and the media often refer to nations in Europe as 'EU states.' We may as well call the EU as the United States of Eurabia.
iv./ Most Americans would probably know where the powerful or important nations to them are located, such as Russia, India, Brazil, China, Japan, Canada, Australia, etc.
v./ Do you know the location of every nation (without looking on Google) in the Middle East, on the African continent, or in Central and South America, etc? Do you honestly know where every single nation is on the planet?
Judging by the humoristic comments, their penmanship,etc, they are high school students.
No, they don't reflect all, they just reflect a random class in USA.
Its more like maximum of 500 years ago for the majority of them. For some, its not more than 2 or 3 generations back.Quote:

They are sovereign countries with their own capitals. The political bullshit and the economic unions is irrelavant when learning geography.:picard2:Quote:

Well done.Quote:

But the thread is about Europe's geography. Nothing more, nothing less. You keep posting irrelevant things on the matter.
No, I don't know all , especially about Africa. I'm pretty good with Asia and Latin America though ~ but this is still irrelevant.Quote:
v./ Do you know the location of every nation (without looking on Google) in the Middle East, on the African continent, or in Central and South America, etc? Do you honestly know where every single nation is on the planet?
And why do you take it personal? Do I act like I'm god or know everything? Or did I insult somehow Americans about their knowledge of lack of it ?
I simply comment what you wrote on the matter is irrelevant.
Important and old countries are mostly known. Why would anybody care about Polands or Slovakias, they appear and disappear every few years in different locations.
Pathetic, I would pwn this map ever since I turned 9
