Some of the answers to the simple questions posed here beggar belief.
Whilst it is easy to poke fun at some American citizens who appear to have little knowledge of anything outwith their country, I know that this type of video could just as easily have been made in the UK.
Ignorance is a worldwide problem, and it appears to be growing...

Funny and scary - I hope you don't mind that I'm so impressed that I'm going to post the same video on my own blog
Best wishes

Don't you worry about stealing it from him Alastair! I posted this on my blog way back in June!
Whilst a cursory look at the questions people get wrong on t.v. quizes would suggest that such a video could indeed be made in the UK, I reckon that the Brits may not be so inclined to flaunt their ignorance as the Americans.
"Country beginning with U?" "Yugoslavia" - Ye couldnae make it up!
Alastair - post away, its all just internet detritus anyway...
Rab - must have missed it over at your place. It must have been hidden amongst the thinly veiled love poems about Liz Fraser and the Cocteaus...
God forbid if someone does a weegie version...
I liked the guy who pointed directly at Australia when asked to identify Korea, and then exclaimed that he didn't realise how much bigger North Korea was than South Korea - presumably with Tasmania or New Zealand standing in for South Korea.
