Out of how many people? And some of those are obvious troll answers. Of course there are morons who really can't do it, but these surveys help nothing and nobody. It's only purpose is just being a cheap way to laugh at Americans.

Some people are terrible with maps, like it's a mental disorder or something. One time in high school we were asked to name the states on a US map, and one girl got like 4 fucking states. This is in America.

I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation dont have maps and, uh, I believe that our, ah, education like such as in South Africa, and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uh, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for.

Meh, being able to pinpoint countries on a blank map is hard. Give Iranians a map of the USA and have them point out Michigan and see how well they do

While I'm sure the number is pretty close, I very seriously doubt the accuracy of the maps. Americans are notoriously bad at geography, but not bad enough to think Iran is in the ocean or within the US itself

I could understand people selecting the middle east, but not getting the exact location right. But people selecting locations in Europe, North America, and Australia aren't really forgiveable.

it's just funny because i guarantee 90% of the dudes here wouldn't know either, and if someone asked them anything on the street, they'd probably just clam up and breathe heavily before instinctively dropping their wallets and running away

If you know theyve frequently had naval confrontations with oil tankers then you should be able to guess that Iran is;
  • next to a body of water
  • connecting them to the Indian Ocean
Leaving you with a 50% chance youll choose Iran (or Saudi Arabia).
