I think the lack of exposure to other countries in the US causes confusion between the concepts of a state, a country, and a continent. Americans regularly "experience" states, so when they hear of someone coming from Asia, or something happening in Canada, they automatically think of these places as being on the same "level" as Wisconsin or Arkansas.
I genuinely cannot understand how my fellow Americans cannot distinguish countries, continents, cities, and american states.

As an ordinary European person I will never understand how come so many Americans don't know the difference between a country and a continent. What are they learning at school at this point?
So we're all gonna pretend that the UK with its 243,610 km² was recognized as a big country, whereas Zimbabwe was taken as a small country spanning 390,757 km²

I'm kinda astonished about how many people don't understand the difference between mixing something up and simply not knowing something. These Ignorants don't mistake Africa and Asia as countries, they simply don't even know what the words country, continent or state even means and often don't even want to understand!

I can name all of the countries and most of their capitals and I don’t even consider that to be very impressive but after watching this video I now consider it a special skill
About that last guy; it is a pretty good thing to have knowledge and perspective on the world around you. A world where nobody knew anything about other cultures would maybe result in disrespect to other cultures than your own; that could result in an unstable world with war and colonialism. What a bright thing to imagine, right?
@FBI Wow the projection in this comment is real lol. Enjoy whatever amazing country you’re from with your General Culture or whatever and how bout you respect the culture of learning what you need to know followed by what you want to know. That’s a mindset a lot of people in the world have not just the US. The elitism in these comments is real lol
@FBI I’d be surprised when someone doesn’t know knowledge that I’d consider basic but I’d hardly say it’s embarrassing. There’s tons of knowledge on the same level that I don’t know and I’m sure the same goes for you. And your go to is the 7 continents or even just continents in general? Literally so many people disagree on what defines a continent, how many there are, and what their names are. That’s a terrible example for basic knowledge lol. Saying stuff like people like him will never make good friends honestly makes you sound like a lunatic lol. He doesn’t give a fuck about geography it’s not that real 😂
@@texasjoehotdog1838 I'm from Germany and we call this basic knowledge "Allgemeinwissen". It's considered to be something everybody needs to know to help you through life. It's not like you need to know it because someone will ask you about it. Like knowing to not immediately trust new people, how the government works, that you need money to live and work to get money, etc... Like the name suggests: basic knowledge. Another important aspect of it is what exactly the land under our feet and beyond the sky is and what types of places there are. This knowledge is expected of everyone to know to find their place in society and shape their view of the world. So that you don't end up living your entire life in a pond not realizing the vastness of the sea that the world is and missing out on life. But that's just my opinion on this, I won't force anyone to have basic knowledge, but I expect everyone to have it.
@@josefbayarsaikhan7933 Well knowing not to blindly trust new people and how to work/get money I can see being useful information in someone’s life not just information to have. Knowing that Kazakhstan is one of the biggest countries? Not so much lol. Knowing how the government works to some extent would be useful too depending on your civic rights and duties but I feel like you might be overestimating how much your average person knows about their government even in Germany lol. Do you have every element on the periodic table memorized? Or even just those aside from synthetic elements. That’s the land under our feet and beyond the sky, the world around us. It’s cool to know but I definitely don’t expect everyone to know it. I’m curious too where you’d draw the line on what you expect people to know. The top 100 biggest countries? The top 100 most populous countries? Every country? Every country including breakaway states? No bs I’m legitimately curious.
@@texasjoehotdog1838 I think the line here is somewhat faded since everyone has a different view of the world, but I'd say that I expect people know things like the USSR no longer exists or to distinguish a country from a continent
Can anyone just realize that you can call a Japanese as "Asian", you can call a Spanish as "European", but you can't call a Canadian as "American"? Smh.
@@Snufkin224 Actually you can still call British people Europeans. They just left the EU (European Union), but they're still a part of Europe. Many countries in Europe are not members of the EU, another example is Switzerland.

I am thoroughly embarrassed, as a U.S. American, to be represented by these people. I know our education system is record-breaking levels of terrible, but, c'mon, guys....
Its more that we don't teach geography. Part of that also involves not having many international borders nearby, and most young people in the US haven't travelled outside of the country in their life. US education is much more effective in other areas.
@@spectra108 Pretty much everything Harrison Siegel said is true, and there's barely any emphasis on learning actual, real information about other countries. If someone, from the beginning of their life, is never really aware of a concept, how can you blame them for being ignorant to it?

@@casparroist2920 I understand what you're saying that school don't focus on geography but I'm pretty sure they teach how many states are there in the US but these guys don't even know that.

You could literally just learn 4 countries and you would already be better than everyone at countries. I personally believe its a valuable trait to name at least 120 countries and i would even be surpised if someone knew 8 countries
This is pain to watch. As an American who's actually really good at geography, it's sad the reputation that Americans get. Not all of us are bad at geo :(
I'm American too, but I'm struggling with which I'm most disappointed. It's either the lack of knowledge, the lack of yearning for knowledge, or the disrespect that was shown in the video. 🙁
@@solesoulsorrow the reason that the Americans that are good at geography is as good as they are is because it's a hobby for them, they don't force themselves to study it. If you don't wanna learn a bunch of geo that's perfectly fine. Besides, there's gonna be certain fields of knowledge that you know more than those damn non americans.
That last kid clearly needs some help. Something is going on that is making him think he has street smarts and that his world isn’t capable of expanding. Pretty sad. Kudos to you for having so much patience and not making the people who get nervous feel dumb.
Yea, he's got a ego problem, which is probably causing him to isolate himself from others, cus "they're too stupid for him". And im just guessing here, but it would make sense to assume he's on omegle because he doesnt interact with people in real life much.
this is unfortunately true, i'm from the US and someone who genuinely loves learning, but ik the reason he's like that (even tho he's Canadian, it's still similar enough) and it's because our education systems here are so woefully garbage, that they've turning learning into a genuinely awful experience that can scar your desire for knowledge. Personally, i think it's on purpose too, there's some very corrupt people in power our countries, and i think sabotaging our education system is intentional because nobody can mess it up this bad "accidentally." lol. It's either intentional or everybody here doesn't care about the education system and is just so selfish that they only care about themselves and not the future generations of children.
@@Joyboy0101 pretty easy to answer my man :], how about the fact that schools in the US turn learning into an unfun chore that makes school a slog to get through, or that they teach through about the most inefficient methods possible, how about the fact that the education system doesn't recieve enough funding so most schools have tiny budgets for updating supplies and such and what they do have usually gets spent on their sports programs because that's what's considered more important. Also, kids in these development years are in the most emotionally vulnerable and impressionable states of their whole lives, and just get put into a meat grinder system, where they are a number and not a person, because there's soo many kids, too many to care about each individually, on top of that bullying can easily happen because there's so many different groups at these schools and the culture within them is one of ignorance that degrades each other for differences and promotes vanity and shallowness instead of independent thought. There's no discipline taught to students so they have no method for diligence and there's no motivation either, why should a student actually care about what's being taught? No reason is provided so they just don't. On top of that, teachers are teaching either outdated curriculum or are teaching their own political agenda nowadays instead of the actually important, practical lessons like how to manage finances because higher-ups suspiciously don't want kids to learn that stuff and most teachers are aloof to most students feelings or problems and therefore don't care if they actually remember any of the things they're taught or not. And these are all just the problems I can think of offhand from my time in school. But that's the thing, when I got out of there, and on my own, I discovered I actually loved learning independently and that's when I gained knowledge through enjoyable, interesting methods on my own time, like by listening to industry experts and masters of their skill talk about cool aspects of their subjects on this very platform, through this, I found I loved things like geography, chemistry, biology, and nuclear science but i hated these subjects in school because you had to learn about them through timed and tested, unnatural methods that were often wrong or even inaccurate with some of the information, often learning through non experts, having to memorize all the unimportant info in a subject, never focusing on the most job relevant aspects of the subject nor having students apply what they've learned in real world situations where they'll need it. Also, everything is made for the lowest bidder and you're treated as such, aka they treat you like an idiot unless you opt to take advanced classes where they assign you 3x the workload... and don't even get me started on homework and how utterly pointless and mentally draining it is. Look, I think you get the point, bottom line is school is a whole lotta mindless work that makes you turn your brain off, but learning doesn't have to be like that, interactive, 1 on 1 learning, apprenticeship, and directly listening to and working with industry experts is where it's at, and that's how learning becomes enjoyable imo and school had none of that so a student going through such an ineffective system can get discouraged from learning for the rest of their lives from such bad experiences, aka scarred so that's why I said that.
As an American (US) who knows world geography quite well, I sincerely hope that these videos cause my fellow Americans to learn geography! With the internet, we have the most amount of international communication than ever before, and the ability to learn things like never before! Quiz games are FREE.
The guy who lives in Canada and thinks he is never going to leave it - you could tell him, what if there are better countries in the world for him to live, or what if life in Canada becomes shit, he would have to know where to go at least. Not talking about participating in politics of your society, to not be a vegetable who is just told whom to vote for, to actually learn about how the world functions, you definitely need to at least know which countries exists and their history.
I live in the US and can name about 100 countries. That’s probably average for other countries but for here I think that makes me a genius Edit: Why are people believing this is real?
sure does make u a genius! few US ppl can do that. im glad im romanian and know all the countries with their capitals and where they are on the map,even if that is something i dont need in my life,but... is still good to know :)))))))))
I really got confused when first heard in your videos that Asia and Europe are defined as different continents... I googled this info and was shocked that there are different perspectives in many countries on how to separate the land into continental parts... Before your videos, I was 100% sure there are 6 continents (I am from Russia): Africa, North America, South America, Australia, Antarctica, and Eurasia. Now I know more :)
And some people think of the Americas as a single continent (which makes sense)… and some people are taught that Oceania is a continent (lol). If we go by continental plates, then there are many, many more.

I just told my mom that the Americans can't name 5 big countries and she laughed so loud
i told my mom too and she didn't believe that lol (my 9 year old brother can even say 20 countries)
Do you seriously think an entire country of millions of people can’t name 5 countries? That’s a stereotype and I don’t meet many people like that where I’m from in the US.
@@dippyfresh8155 It looks like majority of the dumb ppl come on omegle
Its obviously that Americans are behind in Geography, but i don’t think its that bad as it appear to be in this type of videos

What do you call a smart person in the US?

'Immigrant' is also a valid answer.

I am astonished by the amount of people who think Africa and Asia are countries idk what to say at this point.
I'm kinda astonished about how many people don't understand the difference between mixing something up and simply not knowing something.
These Ignorants don't mistake Africa and Asia as countries, they simply don't even know what the words country, continent or state even means and often don't even want to understand!
10:56 so Zimbabwe is small, but england is big despite Zimbabwe being 1.5 times bigger than the UK
Maybe population wise?

I'm laughing out loud with that guy who said that Spain, the UK and France are big countries and then he says: give me a more difficult question as if the first one had been answered well and he said zimbabwe

@@arturoromero951 🤔
he accepts england as a big country and zimbabwe as a small one xD
Yeh, that didn't make any sense
I guess the British Empire so people seen maps where Britain is huge and England is the country most people think of when referring to Britain
big doesn't necessarily mean by size
England's population is around 3,5 times bigger than Zimbabwe's, though England is still far from being one of the biggest countries lol

About that last guy; it is a pretty good thing to have knowledge and perspective on the world around you. A world where nobody knew anything about other cultures would maybe result in disrespect to other cultures than your own; that could result in an unstable world with war and colonialism.
What a bright thing to imagine, right?
@FBI Wow the projection in this comment is real lol. Enjoy whatever amazing country you’re from with your General Culture or whatever and how bout you respect the culture of learning what you need to know followed by what you want to know. That’s a mindset a lot of people in the world have not just the US. The elitism in these comments is real lol
@FBI I’d be surprised when someone doesn’t know knowledge that I’d consider basic but I’d hardly say it’s embarrassing. There’s tons of knowledge on the same level that I don’t know and I’m sure the same goes for you. And your go to is the 7 continents or even just continents in general? Literally so many people disagree on what defines a continent, how many there are, and what their names are. That’s a terrible example for basic knowledge lol. Saying stuff like people like him will never make good friends honestly makes you sound like a lunatic lol. He doesn’t give a fuck about geography it’s not that real 😂
@@texasjoehotdog1838 I'm from Germany and we call this basic knowledge "Allgemeinwissen". It's considered to be something everybody needs to know to help you through life. It's not like you need to know it because someone will ask you about it. Like knowing to not immediately trust new people, how the government works, that you need money to live and work to get money, etc... Like the name suggests: basic knowledge.
Another important aspect of it is what exactly the land under our feet and beyond the sky is and what types of places there are. This knowledge is expected of everyone to know to find their place in society and shape their view of the world. So that you don't end up living your entire life in a pond not realizing the vastness of the sea that the world is and missing out on life.
But that's just my opinion on this, I won't force anyone to have basic knowledge, but I expect everyone to have it.
@@josefbayarsaikhan7933 Well knowing not to blindly trust new people and how to work/get money I can see being useful information in someone’s life not just information to have. Knowing that Kazakhstan is one of the biggest countries? Not so much lol. Knowing how the government works to some extent would be useful too depending on your civic rights and duties but I feel like you might be overestimating how much your average person knows about their government even in Germany lol.
Do you have every element on the periodic table memorized? Or even just those aside from synthetic elements. That’s the land under our feet and beyond the sky, the world around us. It’s cool to know but I definitely don’t expect everyone to know it. I’m curious too where you’d draw the line on what you expect people to know. The top 100 biggest countries? The top 100 most populous countries? Every country? Every country including breakaway states? No bs I’m legitimately curious.
@@texasjoehotdog1838 I think the line here is somewhat faded since everyone has a different view of the world, but I'd say that I expect people know things like the USSR no longer exists or to distinguish a country from a continent
Can anyone just realize that you can call a Japanese as "Asian", you can call a Spanish as "European", but you can't call a Canadian as "American"? Smh.
You can't call British people European according to themself.
The thing is nobody I mean literally no european country is a fan of the brits. Like everyone be hating on them out here😂
@@obitouchiha2581 @Snufkin224 I change it to Spanish then. Lol. Anyway, it's new knowing that actually.
@@Snufkin224 Actually you can still call British people Europeans. They just left the EU (European Union), but they're still a part of Europe. Many countries in Europe are not members of the EU, another example is Switzerland.
@@Snufkin224 How? UK is out of EU, not out of Europe, they didn't move their islands far to the sea or something XD
He's so positive and encouraging! I learn so much from these videos.
I had a lot of colleagues at school (i live in Republic of Moldova) that moved in the US. They had grades like 6-7 (which is like a C- or worse) and there they have A+s and in the majority of the cases they study what they already studied here.

I am thoroughly embarrassed, as a U.S. American, to be represented by these people. I know our education system is record-breaking levels of terrible, but, c'mon, guys....
How is it the system's fault?
Its more that we don't teach geography. Part of that also involves not having many international borders nearby, and most young people in the US haven't travelled outside of the country in their life. US education is much more effective in other areas.
@@spectra108 Pretty much everything Harrison Siegel said is true, and there's barely any emphasis on learning actual, real information about other countries. If someone, from the beginning of their life, is never really aware of a concept, how can you blame them for being ignorant to it?
@@Bos_roseus You're not wrong. Every day, I resent my "country" of the modern day United States gradually more. It's less of a country and more of an economic zone at this point, whose sole purpose is to be used and abused by corrupt politicians, their idiotic followers, and mega-corporations.

Apparently not
Not a fair test since he’s just asking people on Omegle, which is really just a bunch of kids. The majority of Americans aren’t on Omegle.
No it is
@@Mor-tis not really
@@JuliaenLasMontañas But the thing is, take the same instance for any other country and it will work flawlessly. That's the difference. You talk like it's not the same for any other country, but they still manage it under the same circumstances. The US really is the odd one out here.
No , they are just dumb as hell

You could literally just learn 4 countries and you would already be better than everyone at countries. I personally believe its a valuable trait to name at least 120 countries and i would even be surpised if someone knew 8 countries
I have named all countries, does that mean I'm a fucking genius lol? (probably for American standarts)
same
@@victorivanov6603 same
But how is it a valuable trait?
I was pretty nerd as a kid, so i know almost all countries and capitals since i was like 10 YO, its useless knowledge, believe me
Respect to this man for not saying what we all are thinking directly to their faces. That requires a lot of restraint
This is pain to watch. As an American who's actually really good at geography, it's sad the reputation that Americans get. Not all of us are bad at geo :(
Yeah man, I feel the same way
I'm American too, but I'm struggling with which I'm most disappointed. It's either the lack of knowledge, the lack of yearning for knowledge, or the disrespect that was shown in the video. 🙁
@@solesoulsorrow the reason that the Americans that are good at geography is as good as they are is because it's a hobby for them, they don't force themselves to study it. If you don't wanna learn a bunch of geo that's perfectly fine. Besides, there's gonna be certain fields of knowledge that you know more than those damn non americans.

That guy who said learning is the worst part of life makes me sad. The system has really hurt him
this is unfortunately true, i'm from the US and someone who genuinely loves learning, but ik the reason he's like that (even tho he's Canadian, it's still similar enough) and it's because our education systems here are so woefully garbage, that they've turning learning into a genuinely awful experience that can scar your desire for knowledge. Personally, i think it's on purpose too, there's some very corrupt people in power our countries, and i think sabotaging our education system is intentional because nobody can mess it up this bad "accidentally." lol. It's either intentional or everybody here doesn't care about the education system and is just so selfish that they only care about themselves and not the future generations of children.
@@thekamotodragon May I ask, what's an example of how the American education system is scarring peoples' desire for knowledge?
@@Joyboy0101 pretty easy to answer my man :], how about the fact that schools in the US turn learning into an unfun chore that makes school a slog to get through, or that they teach through about the most inefficient methods possible, how about the fact that the education system doesn't recieve enough funding so most schools have tiny budgets for updating supplies and such and what they do have usually gets spent on their sports programs because that's what's considered more important. Also, kids in these development years are in the most emotionally vulnerable and impressionable states of their whole lives, and just get put into a meat grinder system, where they are a number and not a person, because there's soo many kids, too many to care about each individually, on top of that bullying can easily happen because there's so many different groups at these schools and the culture within them is one of ignorance that degrades each other for differences and promotes vanity and shallowness instead of independent thought. There's no discipline taught to students so they have no method for diligence and there's no motivation either, why should a student actually care about what's being taught? No reason is provided so they just don't. On top of that, teachers are teaching either outdated curriculum or are teaching their own political agenda nowadays instead of the actually important, practical lessons like how to manage finances because higher-ups suspiciously don't want kids to learn that stuff and most teachers are aloof to most students feelings or problems and therefore don't care if they actually remember any of the things they're taught or not. And these are all just the problems I can think of offhand from my time in school. But that's the thing, when I got out of there, and on my own, I discovered I actually loved learning independently and that's when I gained knowledge through enjoyable, interesting methods on my own time, like by listening to industry experts and masters of their skill talk about cool aspects of their subjects on this very platform, through this, I found I loved things like geography, chemistry, biology, and nuclear science but i hated these subjects in school because you had to learn about them through timed and tested, unnatural methods that were often wrong or even inaccurate with some of the information, often learning through non experts, having to memorize all the unimportant info in a subject, never focusing on the most job relevant aspects of the subject nor having students apply what they've learned in real world situations where they'll need it. Also, everything is made for the lowest bidder and you're treated as such, aka they treat you like an idiot unless you opt to take advanced classes where they assign you 3x the workload... and don't even get me started on homework and how utterly pointless and mentally draining it is. Look, I think you get the point, bottom line is school is a whole lotta mindless work that makes you turn your brain off, but learning doesn't have to be like that, interactive, 1 on 1 learning, apprenticeship, and directly listening to and working with industry experts is where it's at, and that's how learning becomes enjoyable imo and school had none of that so a student going through such an ineffective system can get discouraged from learning for the rest of their lives from such bad experiences, aka scarred so that's why I said that.

The guy who lives in Canada and thinks he is never going to leave it - you could tell him, what if there are better countries in the world for him to live, or what if life in Canada becomes shit, he would have to know where to go at least. Not talking about participating in politics of your society, to not be a vegetable who is just told whom to vote for, to actually learn about how the world functions, you definitely need to at least know which countries exists and their history.

I really got confused when first heard in your videos that Asia and Europe are defined as different continents...
I googled this info and was shocked that there are different perspectives in many countries on how to separate the land into continental parts... Before your videos, I was 100% sure there are 6 continents (I am from Russia): Africa, North America, South America, Australia, Antarctica, and Eurasia. Now I know more :)
And some people think of the Americas as a single continent (which makes sense)… and some people are taught that Oceania is a continent (lol). If we go by continental plates, then there are many, many more.
