Americans and Geography
« on: 08 April 2014, 18:57:30 »

http://www.businessinsider.com/heres-where-americans-think-ukraine-is-2014-4

As you can see from the map, many Americans think Ukraine is in the US, Canada, South America, Alaska, Greenland, Iceland, UK, France, Spain, Germany, Scandinavia etc, Africa, Georgia, Kazakhstan etc, India, China and Australia to name but a few areas. This would explain why I can't name any famous American Explorer, they must have got lost and given up before they even left the US. :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D

I liked the bit where they report that the further away from Ukraine the respondents guess was, the more they wanted the US to intervene!!  ::)

Yeehaa!!!  :y :y :y

One in five Americans don't know where the United States is, the other four asked what's United States?  ;D

The sash is obviously there so she knows which state she comes from. ::) When she was told she was ignorant, she said does it show I'm only 3 months. :o

The average American woman when asked who the current president of the United States is? Say's Brazilian. When asked how they arrived at the answer, they said easy, no more Bush. ;D
