As a citizen of the United States of America, why should i care about Eur-Asia?? Can you name every single US state without cheating? Do you know every state capital from Albany to Sacramento? Do you know how big Mojave is? The Rocky mountains? Do you know the exact location of Carolina, Georgia and Montana? Do you know the population of Utah and Arizona? I certainly doubt.

In my former russian schoool, in 7th greade (grade 5 in american comparison) ud have to not only learn the capitals of every country, but the high points of each continent.

@ harlem, ofcourse u should know that, its ur country, i know my country the same way, but i have decent knowledge in topography.
