Définition(s)
- Media reports periodically highlight an appalling lack of public geographical knowledge, particularly in the United States. The National Geographic/Roper Public Affairs 2006 Geographic Literacy Study revealed that two thirds of Americans between 18 and 24 years of age were unable to find Iraq on a world map, almost half could not identify India, and three quarters could not locate Iran or Israel.
