I was really surprised an american spotted 46 percent of europe. I was expecting around 7-10. I met two american guys at a hostel in Amsterdam. They thought Amsterdam was the country name while they were there. They said they heard a lot about Holland and asked me how to go there. Then they wanted to visit the Netherlands as well. The final question was the cherry on top: “How many countries are there in the NetherlandSSS?”
@@Aecrim1 I know. But he is widely considered french and his territory, which widely consisted of the area that is France now conquered the territories of the germanic tribes that today make out Germany. So I consider him and his country french to a certain degree.
As a portuguese i am quite surprised so many americans today can identify Portugal on a map of europe. Quite surprising given that less than 10 years ago the vast majority of americans didnt even knew Portugal existed. Amazing.
Strike 1: he doesn't know where Greece is and its the first country thats asked on the quiz ffs Strike 2: *FRIGGIN SOUTH MACEDONIA ERMAGERD EF EF ESS* Strike 3: Cyprus has the damn country on their flag Gah, sometime being a Greek on the internet is an experience like no other.
Yeah and funnily enough, I played this game with US people about where the US states are. And I even beat them in knowing more states than they did. I got 39 which I think is pretty good for a non native. The best of them had 28. One of them only knew 6...
@@beadsman13 nah, sorry I'm German and I wasn't triggered I was more like: *loud pacepalm* I'm just thankful that they gave France France back. They shouldn't even have taking this beatiful country in the first place (in my opinion).xD
Being unable to locate such "classic", mainstream countries as France, Greece, Poland, Switzerland... That's incredible. It's a bare minimum for anyone, even a non-European.
The thing is, as a European I can't name all the balkan countries either but the mainstream countries you should learn at least when you talk about the world wars like... knowing that the "2 front war" happened in Germany because it is in Central Europe and has France to its left and Poland/ Soviet Union to its right should be covered in history... besides many other war things that happened...

As an American, I assure you not everyone in the USA is this bad at geography, my best time is 100% in 70 seconds, I strive for a minute, but I average around 90 seconds; Every time I see one of these videos a part of my soul and my brain dies
Ok for some reason I thought Switzerland had its own language that’s similar to German. I didn’t know they had three official languages from other countries. As a European I am appalled that I did not know this.
It really hurt my soul, when he couldnt come up with the idea that austria, aka germanys little brother, is next to germany... Then i remember how bad i am at geography and how much worse i would do, so i really shouldnt judge. You 2 are really sweet, so in case you are reading this: I hope you have a nice day.
He was about the level of some of the pupils I taught last year. Granted those pupils were about 10 years old, and the ones he beat were the ones that couldn't care less about other European countries :). It is a great side. The kids were always allowed to used the page as extra in my class, when we were using computers. We also worked with different spatialmaps, but we sadly didn't get as much into orienteering, as I had planned.
Surprised by the fact he didn't even know the "big" countries of Europe. I mean, it's understandable if he got lost with the smallest ones but man, with the biggest too?
Right? I could maybe understand not knowing Belgium, Slovenia, Estonia etc. but those popular countries like France, Spain, Germany... It's so sad to be honest
A friend of mine lived in Canada and invited some Canadian colleagues to pick out Britain from an Atlas. In the end, she had to show them and they were shocked to learn it wasn't in continental Europe.
@Queena Yang To be fair, the states are not taught in Europe either. Not a single minute spent talking about them at school. I'm not even sure I could reach 40-50%.
@@andrewr_ Umm there is a difference between countries and states.. I mean you also don't learn the states of any other country. You should compare it to locating the countries in North America and not the states in the US
Well they speak Spanish in Argentina, French in Senegal, German in Namibia, English in Singapore, Dutch in South Africa and Portuguese in Brazil. As a German of course I know where Switzerland and Italy are located, and I could locate most countries in Asia and the Americas. With Africa I'd have a harder time though.

Ok for some reason I thought Switzerland had its own language that’s similar to German. I didn’t know they had three official languages from other countries. As a European I am appalled that I did not know this.
@@rachelcookie321 it kind of is. its a dialect, but theres such a big difference it could be its own language
I like how whenever he has a doubt about a country he naturally goes for the Balkans
