Can Americans Name 5 Countries Outside of America? Simple Geography Test.

The stereotype surrounding Americans is that they are known for being bad at geography. So I decided to find out for myself and put it to the test as to whether they could name 5 countries outside of America. The results are interesting and shocking!

    Thanks, I know I'm just educating certain individuals like the kid with the beard interviewing other kids!😁 Regardless of what continental model anyone follows, it doesn't automatically make América a country & 'American' a term only for the U.S.A.🇺🇲!👍 At the end of the day, América definitely is not a country or a nation. Therefore, 'American' isn't a nationality, a citizenship, or a term exclusively for the U.S.A.🇺🇲 Anyone who uses these terms as such is due to selfishness, ignorance, conceitedness, laziness, stubbornness, indoctrination, and/or arrogance! Furthermore, an American is from the Continent of América!👍 The United States of América/America (U.S.A.)🇺🇲 has a simple, basic, generic name that's easy to comprehend & not misinterpret in any way or language! The United States of América/America (U.S.A.)🇺🇲 simply means we are STATES, that are UNITED, on the Continent 'OF' AMÉRICA! Not América of the United States!!!😏 It's what our Founding Fathers & authors meant, and still means!👍 Greetings from the U.S.A.🇺🇲, an American from the Continent of América! English is my 1st language!

    I think it largely depends on who you ask. That's why I also plan on trying a different audience next time around.

    ​@@Amirpdd Exactly. As soon as you said you were asking tertiary education students I knew there would be a lot more correct answers than " people on the street ". Having said that most of the other students were destroyed by the guy non American. It would also be interesting to see how many can point to them on a map instead of just reciting names. Dude from Lagos could probably point them out and name all the capitals as well.

    People here did get a lot correct... after hesitating and getting some incorrect answers. I would expect people on a college campus to namer at least 50 countries on all continents! (I know that would be a boring video!)
