Dude, 50% of American's cannot located to US on a the globe. I had a set of students, five in the group, turn in a paper on the UK and list Germany as a country that borders the UK. These were college students. Five of them in one group turning in one paper. They actually argued with me when I deducted points for their answer. I had to pull down a map and point out Germany and the UK, the countries in between Germany and the UK, nevermind the large expanse of water.
They took their complaint to the department chair. I have never seen a grown man laugh so hard in my life.
But, I think most Americans would say that the UK is located in Europe and some of us would chuckle and mention that who in the EU but not using the Euro, continental Europe vs Europe thing.
