I guarantee you that absolutely no one in America is going to confuse Italy for "maybe Croatia?". Absolutely everyone knows Italy is the one that looks like a high-heeled boot, and a very large percentage probably have never even heard of Croatia.

    Nah, we know where Ukraine is right now. But I would not have any clue where Georgia was if OP didn't label it...

    Most americans have no thoughts related to france owning northern africa. I know the joke is that algeria is independent now but most american never knew france ruled that region at all

    As an American (Georgian):

    Sad there isn't a dot in the middle of germany called NEUTRALITY

    Georgia in Europe is annoying so we would call them "joor-jee-yuh" instead, at least in Augusta GA lol.

    Oh, we know Ireland, most would often just give them the entire island out of ignorance & laziness tbh.

    Sidenote: Ex-USSR bit is pretty effing accurate tho lol

    For me personally I would add "Arcadia Bay" to where Oregon is and most Europeans know New Mexico bc of Breaking Bad so maybe add "Meth" there

    For some reasons a big part of Africa speaks French. There's even a theory predicting that French could be the most spoken language in the World by the end of the century because of Africa's population growth.
