To be fair, not many Americans could name 50-percent of England's counties, but still, it's fun to laugh.

Also,
Not really sure that's apples to apples. Wouldn't naming the countries in Europe be more accurate a comparison?

They all know Florida. Is this the closest decent beach for them? I see Brits on the gulf coast all the time. Most times they have hauled a surfboard down from their condo ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

The English could probably name more US states than Americans could name England's counties.
My strategy is just to take some old New England city that has "New" in the name, drop the "New", and add "shire" to the end.

A lot of Americans wouldn't get half the states right.
A few years ago I was at a Mardi Gras parade with a friend from London. It was pretty obvious to those around us where he was from because of his accent. A redneck teen and her kin were having a heated discussion near us. The girl turned to my friend and demanded, "Where is Vermont?" My friend, confused of course, says, "The state?" She nodded and he said, "The northeast." And she says, "That's wut ah thought!"
I've never been more embarrassed for my country. Especially since my London friend is probably one of the most intelligent persons on the planet.

To be fair, Britts are some of the dumbest people I've ever met....
Dated a Britt for 2 years, she had a friend come visit from Liverpool, which she basically thought everyone in the States lives were just like the show 90210...
