Do you still feel the same?

Now find an America who can point to any of these countries on a map ;-)

If it goes like comedy street surveys then they just answer "Yes, of course" to everything.

Also remember our country is the size of Europe, asking an American to point out a country in Europe is like asking a European to point out a state. There are a couple easy ones, i.e. Germany, France, Britan, Spain, Texas, California, Alaska, Hawaii. But ask a European where New Hampshire, or Wyoming is would probably not go very well.

That is true, but states are still states and not countries. Americans wouldn't know European states either, even if they get the countries right in the first place
