Everyone keeps talking about It's american thing. It's not. I've seen these exact same kind of stats in London Articles.
I don't think it's bad to point at Syria instead of Iraq, as long as you're close and you're not the president. You only have problems when you point to Japan instead of Iraq. These articles don't consider a close estimate correct so the results aren't as shocking as they make them out to be. I would think Louisiana would be easier to pick out than Nebraska, or Utah though. I mean it has a pretty distinct shape and location..
If you don't use what you learn, you're going to lose it. If you aren't watching Jeopardy or the news, or actually going to these places you're just going to forget.
