Their knowledge of geography is on par with the average American high school graduate, not an excuse, just an observation.

 

I've noticed that the average American's world geography is weaker than most, what can you guys attribute this to? Is it just as simple as geography not being taught in school as much as other countries?

 

Obviously these are pretty gross generalizations I am making here.

Basicly it's just the culture of the country... the stereotypical american has the point of view that they live in a "Superpower" country and it's not their place to worry about where some minor player is located, so long as those minor players know the the US of A is.

 

Thats my take on it.

 

 

Try reading a book called "The Ugly American" it'll make you think about international relations :P
