    As a Albanian i can confirm our country is pronounced Alabama and it is part of the United States, and I never understood why there is so much space between the United States and Alabama and when I go there I only take 1 hour, if anyone knows why tell me please

      Alabama and Albania, separated by oceans and continents, are indeed the same place! Who knew, right? It's like a mind-blowing. Now for the reason my friend! Alabama appears to be far away from the rest of the United States on some maps is because those mischievous cartographers decided to play a little game of "hide and seek" with our geographical senses. They thought it would be hilarious to give Alabama its own personal space.

      Anyway, your name of a city comes from popular polish tounge-breaker "W Szczebrzeszynie chrząszcz brzmi w trzcinie, i Szczebrzeszyn z tego słynie."
      Btw, "Szczebrzeszyn" is a real name of a city too.

      When I was new to geography (the US education system is a failure on purpose),
      and learned geography by playing Rome: Total War and such,
      I thought Japan looked like a squid, and Britain like the hat of a witch.
      Later I learned just how bad the Roma: Total War map is. It's missing most of Greece's islands, for one thing.

    So to answer your question, Scot Land and Northern Ire Land are departments of France, but the national government of the UK in Dublin claims control over them since everyone there speaks English anyway. But I think there is something fishy going on because President Boris Johnson (or Jeansson??) speaks French and grew up in Brussels' Sprouts, Belgium Waffles, so I think he is really a puppet dictator installed by French secretary-general Emmanuel Macaroon. There's a reason why no one ever comes or goes from the British Isles. They don't want the rest of the world to find out the seediness that goes on there.

    as an Indonesian in 4th grade, I feel bad thinking American kids having to learn 50 states and their capitals, when I can't even remember 34. But after learning that some Americans don't know basic geography just left me speechless.

      It takes a lot time as well as bit of traveling experience to truly learn them all, which not many Americans get. Even I couldn't point out where each state is on a map, nor could I list them straight from memory, but I can recognize all of them when I hear or read any of them. I think most Americans are similar.

      Yes, Americans are shit with geography, especially on the global scale, but lemme make one tangent:
      The USA is a HUGE nation. I see so many Europeans (and even Americans) talk down on Americans for not "travelling the world."
      When tbf, "travelling the world" is easy as fucking shit when you're a European that lives only a couple hours away (driving distance) from the next country with a different culture, language, and history.
