Lol honestly doesn’t really surprise me for the US. I went to college in the neighboring state and you would think I grew up in a different country, so I can only imagine the lack of knowledge of actual other countries for some people.
But to be fair, my extended family that still lived in a small, rural town in Italy is completely flabbergasted by the size of the US. They thought they could go on a week long road trip from NY and visit DC, Orlando, and Las Vegas. We had to break it to them that wasn’t going to happen lol.
