When I was a kid my older brother installed a geography app on my PC. I forgot the name but it has quizzes too and general info on the countries. It even plays the national anthem! Years later my friend from Pakistan (I'm Indonesian) asked me where Cyprus was. That's so easy 🤣 It's a beetle-shaped island between Europe and Asia.
The questions weren't even hard. I don't think anyone has even heard of Myanmar, Kyrgyzstan, or Bhutan. Seeing how inept my fellow Americans are at geography just makes me mad why did I click on this video.
Never waste anytime in the capital of Thailand, aka Bangkok, but if you can get lucky to travel the country and smaller towns and private beaches, oh my word. It's really beautiful! My fave place to visit there, only did it once, was Erawan Waterfalls.
And people from Asian nations don't know anything about the Americas. So it's pretty balanced. Most are shocked to learn Canada, Mexico and Brazil are American nations. Then the those four are the only American nations they know. Also yes SEA is where the Asian race is from, so about 45% of Americans see South East Asia as being just "Asia".

Honestly it really makes me sad that here in America we don’t learn about these sorts of things very much in school, and therefore just not much in general. Personally, I’ve recently started to take an interest in geography and I think it’s genuinely really interesting and also interesting to kind of look a little into the stories of countries and know a little about each of them
School does suck in the US but don’t blame the ignorance on school. Anyone can learn geography on their own without relying on school to teach it to them. Typical excuse Americans use to justify their lack of knowledge
In America, feminist and woke ideology are more important than geography, eg. 'I'm voting for Kamala because she is a woman and black.' Ha ha ha ha. (Actually, she is Tamil culture with a Tamil (Indian) name.

I think they are actually really good. I was an exchange student in Texas from Japan for a year and enjoyed living in there too much and by the time I had to leave I almost had forgotten everything about Japan.

I know there are more things but these are just what comes up to my mind.
can I reach 10000 subscribers in a month? It’s really not that hard lol. The situation is kinda bad though. I remember being in high school and most of the class didn’t know how many continents there were. People didn’t even know where Australia was smh. I was shocked tbh.
I memorized the country in southeast asia, south asia and east asia and I remembered in my 7th grade my teacher gives us quiz to locate all the countries in Asia
ah mine too we had to memorize almost every country from every continent and a lot about each of their culture, language, religion and stuff i'm european btw and this made me feel smart
Sadly, it's true. My wife is of Indian descent & the first time she referred to herself as Asian I was a little confused. So now I always specify North & South Asian. I was like "Why can't I just stay dumb? It's so much easier--they're Asian, you're Indian!"

ULU RİMET because i don‘t think that you‘ve ever met syria and european people. Syria and European people compare to each other like russians to south Amerika people. Totally other people. They look different, other religion/culture, other values, other everything. Thats why i ask where you life 😅
@ULU RİMET Continent itself means the land, so geographically there should be only 6 continents, Europe and Asia being Eurasia. However, geopolitically, Europe and Asia are separated. Idk for sure since i only googled it, but hope this helps 😂
@@maxburger566 I'd argue that Syrian people don't look that different to Turkish Greek or Bulgarian or other southeastern European people. Plus it's not about looks. Also religion is all over the place and what you might call European religions, many of those originate from the Middle East/are Judeo-Christian-Islamic in origin.

@Jacob okkk,India was one of the fastest growing economies before 2020 or post covid.the gdp per capita accounts to nothing when comparing the cost of products and services provided to any citizen.for ex-a chocolate that costs $5 in us costs around max to Max $0.5-$1 bcz as the services and income increases so do thier costs.india is a cheap country which adjusts to it's needs based on it's income.india is going to dethrone us as second largest economy by 2030-2040.its gdp growth rates dwarfs other nations such as us and UK for instance.hope u can understand it and fit it in ur small brain.i don't reply care about ur shitty non factual comment but I insisted on answering with facts rather than insults.wish u a bad day

There are so many different cultures and races in Asia, so if you pinpoint them all as "Asian" your bigoted and that's the fact
I was talking to someone, and they asked me what continent I'm from. I said, "I'm Asian." Then they proceeded to ask me, "wow, can you speak chinese, japanese, or korean?" I'm Indian.
" Shanghai is the capital of Japan." "Dude, what? You just offended two countries in Asia." I am Chinese and I was studying in Toronto, Canada. My high school classmate actually said that in front of a number of Asian students.
Trust me most other people would not know about countries far far away from them. I bet you Mongolians, Chinese and other Asian countries wouldn't know where Albania, Serbia, Croatia, Estonia and other European countries are (except for the obvious ones).
@Only Solo well, I guess I still do have a long way to go since I'm 14, but my history and CLVE teachers are teaching a lot of geographical stuff more ever since school started, and I only now realised that Egypt is technically part of Africa. Just like what the other guy explained at the previous comment. And I guess I'm starting to understand why Americans don't know geography all too well, but it's still quite annoying that they'd expect Asians to be the same. At least be aware of the damn difference.
@Only Solo well that's cool, I guess I learnt my lesson for being ignorant. Still, there are other Americans who aren't aware of the continent and country differences despite having better education than most other countries, but that can be passed on since their history is taught more often than geography. At least that's what an American teacher explained.
@@scummywizard3561 yeah everyone should learn geography but your comment was pretty stupid. In order like a certain kind of food, you need to know everything about it?
Sometimes I ask myself questions like: Do americans know that Egypt is in Africa? Do americans know that Pakistan is in Asia? Where do americans think Australia is located? Do americans know that english is an european language? People laugh at this, but it's too sad, I am genuinely worried about this. P.s.: not every American is like this!
Considering the amount of stuff ive heard of people making stupid discussions about if Ancient Egypt was "white" or not i wouldnt be surprised if some didnt know it was in Africa Like only black, sub-saharan Africans are "true africans" and north/saharan africans dont exist (even if they are heavily arabized what's the point?? nobody refers to all white americans as "europeans" even though you could say that because of colonization)
@@nadko9910 if you actually used your brain that kid is still in school so his knowledge of geography is still fresh while the adults aren't. If someone was a doctor here why would they need to know where Kazahstan is on the map. It serves no benefits
When Americans think of Asia it seems that they only think of East Asian countries such as China, Japan, Korea etc. When in fact the name 'Asia' originally referred to Western Asia, places like Anatolia, the middle east and India. The word came from what the ancient Greeks referred to those places as.
Yes...I am from south Asia , India... Sometimes I feel that... western society thinks Asia means only China , Japan and Korea..but that's not true...if that is then how Asia became biggest continent in world...!!??
@@gregoriodelpilariii2682i know, I did not say that the word came from China or Japan. I said it's the word that the Greeks used to call anything that was east of them, before they knew China or Japan existed
Also blame the Western Universities (specifically US and Canada) ! They offer “East Asian Studies” major and really, it only focus in China, Japan, and South Korea. If you red a book called “Orientalism” by Edward Said, he specifically mentioned that when “Asia” topic is brought to Americans, they only know China and Japan.
I remember when I was younger, my friend said to me, “You’re asian? I thought you were Cambodian.” ... you wouldn’t believe how disappointed I was in her smh lol
@@edison7300037 to be honest, Cambodia is a typical weak southasian nation with polit. Decisions between US-backed military, instable "democraty"/"royality" and communism. every election is a fight between the religious, monarchic, the US supported and the vietnam communistic party. every election is followed by rebelish actions against the fraud victory by the loser. the economical situation is not really different by the political influence and rise, because the anti-communistic trade embargos were droped since ~1995. the difference is the distributation of money. the monarchic faction would give more money to sacral buildings and temples, the democraties to economical trade areas/some few cities and the communists have a similar position like the democrats, but have traditional support in rural areas. the farmers in cambodia are communistic, poor and need help and at least some support is given by the communists in a show to get this support. it is similar to italian communistic party after WW2, who was extremly for poor farmers and against conservative land owners and the church. i would suspect, that the vietnam communists killed some rebels/oposition too, but their claim to do it to prevent a second civilwar is not just a lie and their party is basicly the only garanty for at least some social support in the rural area with nearly 60% of the population in these areas. other parties dont care about these regions. every street, hospital, kindergarden, bridge and school in these areas were build by communists. i think some americans should watch the old italian show "don camillo and pepone". communism is like christianity not allways bad. some populations should use it. it is more reasonable, explicit as a poor farmer in a small state.
I like this video because unlike many others on TH-cam, it's not just making fun of Americans' ignorance, but asking them for the reason why they don't know about Asia, and their answers were very intelligent and insightful. And these people are actually not that bad , they know China and Japan, it just surprised me many didn't know where Korea was.
Russia is the largest. China looks like the shape of chicken. Mongolia is in-between Russia and China. South and North Korea are located around the beak of the chicken. Japan is a banana above the sea.

uwu you are probably just as dumb as there people in that video. I believe 57% of Indian jobs are in Industrial or Services and 43% is agriculture.

When Americans think of Asia it seems that they only think of East Asian countries such as China, Japan, Korea etc. When in fact the name 'Asia' originally referred to Western Asia, places like Anatolia, the middle east and India. The word came from what the ancient Greeks referred to those places as.
And they did not ask any from the Middle East, although there's plenty of Southwestern Asian countries, which segregates them more.
Yes...I am from south Asia , India... Sometimes I feel that... western society thinks Asia means only China , Japan and Korea..but that's not true...if that is then how Asia became biggest continent in world...!!??

@@edison7300037 to be honest, Cambodia is a typical weak southasian nation with polit. Decisions between US-backed military, instable "democraty"/"royality" and communism. every election is a fight between the religious, monarchic, the US supported and the vietnam communistic party. every election is followed by rebelish actions against the fraud victory by the loser.
the economical situation is not really different by the political influence and rise, because the anti-communistic trade embargos were droped since ~1995. the difference is the distributation of money. the monarchic faction would give more money to sacral buildings and temples, the democraties to economical trade areas/some few cities and the communists have a similar position like the democrats, but have traditional support in rural areas. the farmers in cambodia are communistic, poor and need help and at least some support is given by the communists in a show to get this support.
it is similar to italian communistic party after WW2, who was extremly for poor farmers and against conservative land owners and the church. i would suspect, that the vietnam communists killed some rebels/oposition too, but their claim to do it to prevent a second civilwar is not just a lie and their party is basicly the only garanty for at least some social support in the rural area with nearly 60% of the population in these areas. other parties dont care about these regions. every street, hospital, kindergarden, bridge and school in these areas were build by communists. i think some americans should watch the old italian show "don camillo and pepone". communism is like christianity not allways bad. some populations should use it. it is more reasonable, explicit as a poor farmer in a small state.
