When foreigners need to point to states on a map, why can they

Because no one cares about interchangeable Amerisquares

1. They're large and easily recognizable on a map
2. They have something unique to them

Why would anyone care about Iowa, for instance?

Why would anyone care about stupid squares, that are basically all the same anyways?

>>78849378
Iowa has the most uniqe shape in the Union famalam
>>78849360
>>78849415
;_; is the "stupid squares" meme big outside the U.S.?

>>78849451
I don't have anything against Amerisquares it's just too much to expect me to remember them. The East half of America looks a little more organic but as you go west it's just random squares

>>78849451
Texas has most unique idiot.

>>78849480
I think I meant VT instead of VA

>>78849480
Good attempt/10

Better than I'd expect for a non-American.

>>78849480
You messed up in the east, but not bad.

Okay, Louisiana has some french speakers left, Florida is shaped like a benis, California is successfull and Alaska is like Canada, other than that, they are just interchangeable squares, like the dane said, but that's ok, same thing applies to most ex-colonies

Just convert them to provinces and reduce that clutter to 10, like civilized people.

Because it's not so important to know most states of the US, as they're not independent countries. But I think most people would recognize Florida, too.

The states that are easily recognized are so recognizable due to being the culture capitals, and/or having an unique shape or position.

>>78849686
At least you got NY and PA right which I fucked up majorly

>>78849344

>you can literally draw americans states in less than a second
Can americans name these two states?

>>78849344
Most states are irrelevant

did I do good?

>>78851965
How do you know Michigan but not New York

>>78851942
You spelled Missouri, Tennessee, Delaware, Indiana and Louisiana wrong
Possibly Massachusetts also.

Who cares if other people don't know our states? I can barely place the Canadian provinces and that's only because I like Canada. I'd only expect foreigners to recognize California, Texas and New York because they're the most influential. Similar to British Colombia or Quebec. Who cares about Saskatchewan or Oklahoma(me).

>>78849378
We're glad no one does. Keep flying over.

I know NY but I can't point it out on a map there's like 10 states where it's supposed to be
I also think I forgot to list Virginia and Minnesota

>>78849344

I'll probably remember a few right after posting this but whatever

>>78852331
Well you got all the one's you knew correct so good job on that.

>>78851392
That bottom left one there is Russia.

>>78849344
Alaska, California, Texas, Florida, New York. What else would a foreigner ever need to know or care about?

I bet most of these are wrong

>tfw know every country in Europe + their capitals
>know every state but don't know their capitals because they're always some irrelevant tier 3 backwater city

>>78849480

Meanwhile in America...

i know tx, florida, cal

the east coast if an utter clusterfuck to me, i recognize names but have no idea where to put them, like vermont, ny, jersey, penny

theres the desert shitholes like arizona nevada and new mexico but cant put them in place exactly

washington is easy becase we learn washington DC is different than washington which is completely on the other side of the country

i know wyoming because thatd be the only place i consider going

the prairie states or flyover states i have no idea where exactly are they, just know names again like kansas? tennesse? ohio?

anyway we learn about the geography of the USA and their economy too but not about its states

>>78852581
All correct if my MN you meant Montana because MN means Minnesota
