Oh my goodness, that's hilarious. And sad. To tell you the truth, I'm too intelligent to be embarrassed by the ignorance of "my fellow Americans". Our leaders are "average" intelligence. Our commander in chief is a bumbling idiot. Ignorance runs rampant. It's American policy to mis-educate the masses. To keep them in fear and in the dark and under control.  The most intelligent of us know this, but no one listens to us. It's a shame to admit, but the average US citizen is sub-intelligent and gullible. They'll believe anything they see or read, and so the propaganda of television and the media is extremely influential.  No I'm not embarrassed, but those people should be.  My condolences to the people of Australia, if any of those people ever get any weapons of mass destruction. LOL **==

I suppose you could research the history of each state - some borders are obvious (rivers), while others are lines of latitude and longitude. Once you get past that, there probably aren't many other reasons.

If you're going to refer to a poll by CNN then you need to post a link for us to see this poll.  Otherwise, we think you're full of it and are just trying to stir the pot.\n\nThanks for the link.  Yes, I don't understand either, it's appalling.  The only answer I can think of is that they aren't focusing on Geography in the schools anymore and let's face it, for a lot of kids if it isn't force fed to them by the schools they sure aren't going to go out of their way to learn it.  Sad but true.

for directions...mapquest.com, mapsonus.com.  things like that.  if you want to actually see what it looks like...download google earth.  gives satelite photos of almost everywhere in the country.  (smaller remote areas...probably will just show up as blurs)

That is a very general question. Physical geography is the study of areal distribution and the spatial aspects of nature and natural processes. It includes geomorphology, geology, oceanography, meteorology, climatoloty, ecology, pedology, etc...any science that can be described spatially can be studied in a physiographical light.\n\nNote:'Physiography' is just fancy for physical geography.\n\nIt has been said that physical geography is the study of natural processes and ecosystems; human geography is the study of how we're screwing them all up.

Sorry, this is not a university, this is an international web site, your inquiry cannot be effectively responded to because you have not stated the earth location in which you wish to study.

I am an American and learned Geography very well.  By the 3rd grade, I could point out abput 92% of the countries.  Those little island countries like Vanuatu and Tuvalu, I skipped those (hence the 8%).\n\nRegardless, I wish I could say it was just the "no child left behind" program where the speed of the class is at the lowest learner's abilities.  But Geography hasn't been in the forefront for a long time.\n\nIn 3rd grade we learned all the US states.  In 9th grade we learned the countries.  And only 1 Geography class is required in college.  That's it.  If you don't have US geography down in the 3rd grade your finished, unless you take the initiative to go back & learn it.\n\nAnd some people just aren't good at memorization.

I did some research... here are some websites that might help...\n\nThe 2nd one is a map quiz that will help you learn more about the physical features.
