When I was in highschool we had to read this book in our history class. "Preparing for the 21st Century". Can't remember the Author's name. I think It was Paul Kennedy.
Anyway, he had a statistic in there (now keep in mind that he is an American Author and this book was piblished about 10 years ago) that 1 in 7 Americans couldn't find their country on a map. That's a pretty astonishing figure, now I don't know how true it is, but I was still shocked.
