I have seen some posters complaining about ignorance of average Americans about European geography. Lets check out how Europeans know American geography. Most of American states are are bigger than for example Estonia and in many areas less dependent from Washington than EU members from Brussels.
My results was 87 points out of 150. However I admit that about three/four years ago I was playing such geography games on internet, including US geography. | |

| I wouldn't complain either if they wouldn't offend other countries.
I probably started to learn these states of the USA if they were independent countries but right now I can't see much point in just swotting parts of the USA. | |

| I was 100% sure of few locations and knew in what region I can search for the rest, thus I had many second and third chance shots. Kiskun, how often do you travel to the US  | |
