comparing internet comments when americans can’t locate a 2000 sq mile city-state with an unpronounceable name on a map in central eastern europe versus when europeans fail to understand the scale of a damn continent on the same map is some wild contrast ngl.
if you don’t realize that a country which spans most of a major continent (which you have seen depicted next to your own continent on every world map for your entire life) is not the same size as spain or france, then the issue is much deeper than nationality.
Bullshit aside, I wonder how common this is in Europe. I’m absolutely not going to defend our (USA) education level, especially when we’re working on one-upping 1939 Germany. But, I wonder if for some Europeans being actually blind to this sort of stuff (post is obviously a joke) it has to do with the density of Europe, or if it has to do with conflict being distracting or sustainability being fulfilling.
Europeans: METRIC MAKES EVERY MEASUREMENT COMPREHENDABLE
ALSO EUROPEANS:
Well it probably doeant help that nothing in the states is metric lol
Youre more likely to find a map measured in football fields or hamburgers at most places
Speaking of by large distances, how long was it after the USA walked on the moon until any country in Europe did?
The Saturn V is a great example of German engineering.
Exactly “nobody cares” years
Y’all seem to have gotten so butthurt you assumed i wasnt american. Big oof lmao. Have fun with that
Maps measure in miles AND kilometers here you have no excuse
Its all beans mate
Edit: about 350,000,000 wide
