sitsinwindows said: I do like the ‘I am so sorry, you are all great’ comment. Sounds like something I would do. I am rubbish at identifying Europe, myself. However I do know where Vietnam and Cambodia are (neighbours, too, I believe) and I sure as hell know where Oz is.
^^ I realize my post came out a little harsh and very conceited, I posted it without re-reading and it wasn't my intention at all XD.
what I meant is that it's a huge shame that in general, geography is very poorly taught. I only know the countries of the world because I had this one teacher who forced us to learn them, but I'm an exception. Up until I was 20, I didn't know there were two Congos and Central America was all a big blur to me. I still have trouble identifying Kyrgyzstan on a map XD
but I feel like, it should be mandatory for someone who's had a higher education to at least be able to get the effing continents right!
ps. yes, the "so sorry, you are all great" was the best one XD
