One time my workplace did an informal fun lil test of identifying every state in the US. More than one person was surprised Mexico was so close. Most people got around 10 states correct and left the rest blank.
Around ten people labeled states with the names of foreign countries, like I remember one person identified Hawaii as Japan, and one wrote “British” on Virginia. These were people with college degrees too. Americans are simply not great at geography.

Damn, I’m not even American and I feel like I could get at least 50% of the states labeled correctly
