    I’m kind of a geography buff and i still can’t even name ten. Same for India. And i’m not American but our education also severely neglected to teach us basically anything about the world outside of Europe and the US. The most we learned about the rest of the world was countries and their capitals. And history was even worse. It went Ancient Egypt > Greeks > Romans > Charlemagne > Holy Roman Empire > French revolution > Napoleon > Bismarck/German unification > World War > Weimar Germany > World War again > German reunification.
