11 percent of youth in the U.S. couldn't even locate the U.S. on a map
About 11 percent of young citizens of the U.S. couldn't even locate the U.S. on a map. The Pacific Ocean's location was a mystery to 29 percent; Japan, to 58 percent; France, to 65 percent; and the United Kingdom, to 69 percent.
Particularly humiliating was that all countries were better able to identify the U.S. population than many young U.S. citizens. Within the U.S., almost one-third said that population was between one billion and two billion; the answer is 289 million. "It gives the sense that there is this Americentric thing going on?that we are big and powerful and have all these people in our country," said John Fahey, President and CEO of the National Geographic Society. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...perSurvey.html --------------- wow.. there are 11% of americans posting on GFY? thats a shitload

First, they should have explained what a map is ...

And yet, People come from all over the world to attend our universities. Of course, only the elite students from around the world get that opportunity. The rest just stay home and post on GFY.

Going to a University in the US doesnt seem to help much - I had a recent graduate of a major college with a masters degree in physics come to work with me a few years ago - during a discussion of Alaska for some reason one day, she stated "yep its an island to the west of Canada".
Seems that she had always thought it was an island because the maps always have it in a separate box making it look like its all alone in the Pacific Ocean. Of course this same "honor student" when hearing me talk to a friend about playing old 45s on a record player, asked why you would put a gun on a record player ![]() |

I love how idiot canadians with low self esteem hunt all day long for this kind of thing.
yes, "thelegacy" you're way smarter than all of america. hahahaha The National Geographic?Roper 2002 Global Geographic Literacy Survey polled more than 3,000 18- to 24-year-olds in Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Sweden and the United States. wow! a whole 3,000 people divided by 9 countries? a survey that tried to pull numbers from 333 Americans and extrapolate it to represent 289 million is what idiots bring to the table.

Only 11% of young people? Not to bad.. I wonder what the ages were?
I'm sure you would find the close to the same thing in many countries if it was kids being asked.

from the data:
"Respondents in all countries were administered a geography quiz testing knowledge of current events, international issues, map reading skills, and world geography. Those in the US received a slightly longer quiz" no, this test wasn't out to prove a point. no, this test wasn't slanted against americans.

Jay Leno did a Man in the Street segment where he had a rough time finding someone who knew the name of the Vice-President.
Kids these days are more likely to know the names of Paris Hilton's dogs. ![]()
