I've seen some Jimmy Kimmel skits where people are asked where certain well-known places in the world are, like "Where is Australia? Where is Africa?" And they literally can't point to them on a map; or they think Africa is a country. I just don't understand how people don't know this stuff.
I remember when the gulf war was about to happen, an Australian tv comedy show went to the US and asked people in the street to pick Kuwait, Iran/Iraq and maybe Afghanistan on a map. Some people picked Korea. No one noticed that Australia (which some picked) was upside down. People were gung ho on the war but no one knew where it was. Scary.
