And that for Americans, who have a hard time to locate even their own home town on a map.
Forget for a second that your original premise is basically completely wrong... You realize how fucking massive the USA is right? Based on the smugness I have to assume you're European. The USA is effectively the same size as your whole continent. The country is the size of your continent. Let that sink in. And unlike the Continent of Europe... Much of the middle of the continent has no notable landmarks on many maps.
Most people can absolutely give you the general area they live if you put a map of the USA in front of them. They may be off by a bit, but that's simply a function of how massive the scale of the map is you put in front of them.
Hurr durr, 'Muricans Stoopid
People like you crack me up, all butthurt cause Americans don't give a fuck about where you're from.
Just shows you want attention from Americans, like you're mad your crush doesn't know you exist.
