Hehehe... back in 10th grade, i had someone try to find Iraq in class. He pointed at Hawaii...

Wow just because I don't know about every single backwater country in the world makes me bad a geography?

Maybe because Mozambique has basically zero historical, economical, scientific, geopolitical significance and is on the opposite side of the world. If you go to a random European/Asian and tell them to point out Montana on the map, I'll bet they'll get it wrong. Maybe if they did something important like participate in a world war, invent something worth while, create an empire, have a large population, something actually influential to history then they might be worth remembering.

Sorry if I offended you, but I've seen many Americans that are really bad at geography, and you're just reinforcing the stereotype.

We are stereotyped as terrible geographers? I'm a little disappointed in my world stereotype...... What other stereotypes do Americans get??? Anything actually cool?

I knew where Mozambique was in Africa. I was thinking it was by Mauritania. I thought it was where Mali is, but I guess it's by Malawi and not even close to Mauritania. Africa's geography is difficult.

Speaking of which, I like their light blue color a lot. It is a very good color.

The blue and white Saint Andrews cross is Scotland's national flag, but they also have a 'Royal Standard of Scotland' of yellow and red. It has a red Lion Rampant in the center.

And if Scotland votes for independence, the blue will probably be taken from the UK flag...leaving a red asterisk on a white field XD

More like they'll just revert back to the red cross on white background. Or, if they go classic, the red background with a bunch of lions. ;)

You are too late..

Senjard wrote:No offense, but Americans are really that bad at Geography?

Yes! I have a friend in Portugal (Who really hates Americans for their ignorance BTW) I told him I thought Portugal was somewhere near China... They stopped talking to me for the rest of that day... Hell I can't remember all the states either.. I will never see them so why care where they are on a map?

Hate to agree with you.. But yea.. We generally are very bad at geography.. and spelling.. From what I remember we only learn about American stuff in school.. (Though I might not have made it far enough to know for sure) Now you all know I am a drop out (Had good reason though! Not a druggy or anything) I has an excuse for being a baka.. those who make it through school better at least know where all the states are!

Fizzle nibblets wrote:Thembria? Nope, not a Vandoosan puppet! Try again!

You know me.. so you must be an Iwaku nation!

Oh and pechuga de pollo a la plancha is the DEVIL! I hate making that stuff...

That gives me an idea of how to enrage folks from Scotland! "Hey can you point out Scotland on a Map?" "YEA! That is easy It's a province of England ain't it? Or was it a town in Ireland...I forget"

Well, there is Macau, an ex-Portuguese colony near Hong Kong. IIRC, they were under Portugal's domain until 1999 when they gave it to China.

I thought it was an Island chain that was invaded by the Spanish or something.. So I was sorta right.. just not quite.. Portugese looks similar to Spanish..
