As an American- I really have no idea what's wrong with that map. Are the cities in the wrong places or something?

trust me, as a guy you used to be something of a geography nerd, i can't really say that i'm surprised. when i moved to south carolina i'd say at least half of my friends expressed surprised over the fact that south carolina even existed. not all of them were idiots, either. sad, sad times.

see the little indentation near the bottom of the island? that's roughly where the dot for london should actually be.

Yep. And Cornwall is that whole sticky outy bit in the South West, it's a county not a city.

Ah.
Eh, I totally won't retain that. I don't care enough. *shrugs*
I don't know American geography. Sadly, I can get around Hyrule easier then my home state. I just plug my destination into my GPS and obey my robotic overlords. I mean, I don't let them drive me into lakes or anything, but I obey them for the most part. I have the voice of Shelia from Red vs Blue.

I was trying to find a less douchebag way to say that, but as an American, I have no idea why. That's not the American way. The American was is... well, to be perfectly honest... you are a fucking little island. We totally don't care.

Hey WTF, in my younger days I was at a dance in Memphis. A girl asked me where I was from, I told her Montana, she said "I knew you were from the South by your accent"....

I love Europeans that get off the plane here in the midwest and say we're going to rent a car for the day and go see the Grand Canyon.

This isn't new. Americans have never been good at geography because for the most part we don't care. We're probably the most egocentric nation on earth. Possibly the most in history.

I think it is more an indication that Americans could give a shit about the UK then it is about geography. Plus our media represents the lower echelon of intelligence in our population.
