Well it clearly didn’t work
I can’t decide which is worse: those in the USA or those in the ocean
Could be a small island!
It would be really funny if they asked latitude and longitude instead of asking them to point on a map. Suddenly the data becomes very impressive.
turns out 23% of americans are geography gods
I’m not sure either…

I do wonder what the statistics would be for the other countries

Western european countries would definitely do better. Every time I see one of those videos of a guy on the street asking people geography the Americans are completely worthless but and random european is almost perfect. Americans can’t even get their states of our own country correct

These types of tests are invalid because people are going to troll.
I would like to know the context of this survey. Who in the world gets asked where is a country and points to the middle of the sea
probably doing it because they think it’s funny or something like that
More like I-ran away from history class. Am I right guys?

To be fair, I bet there is a town named Iran in the US. There’s a Cuba, Bolivia, Lebanon, and others.
Okay, I just looked it up and no, but you can see where I coming from - lots of places named after foreign countries/cities. It probably is stupidity, but with included confusion.
Yeah, I see what you mean but the majority is still most likely stupidity (though there is probably at least one because of that)
I wonder if it asked them to point out “the country of Iran.”
Of course people also confuse cities and states. Like on the game shows, people will say things like Los Angeles when they mean California, and vice versa.
A large chunk of them, well over half, had the general part of the world right. Honestly better than I expected.
Yeah, I’d say ~50% are close enough to be considered basically correct.
Rip Italy though.
It skews pretty far into Europe though, which surprised me.
It does, yes. A lot of them are centered around the Persian gulf, so there seems to be a strong “it’s around here somewhere” approach.
TIL there’s a disturbing amount of USians who think Iran is actually Atlantis.
Well, has Iran been at war with the US at any point in time? No. Checkmate.
Actually 23% is a pretty good stat?
Do you really think that many people Iranians are mermaids?
God clearly failed, then. George W. Bush kept bombing places that he couldn’t pronounce.
I wanted to be mad, but I thought it over and decided op had a point.
Ahhh yes, Iran Alberta, Canada.
Go for the food, stay for the bread festivals. It’s when we sing the score from Fiddler on the roof and sacrifice a bear in the name of our sponsors, Phil’s pork 'n beans.
Good Ol’ Iran, Alberta. Fuckin’ love that place. Go there, you tell Jimmy, Bill from Ottawa says hello!

Nice try, Kane
Not the British, French, or Dutch?
Of course not. America is the only nation on earth capable of perpetrating evil, ghod.
