thanks for the explanation guys and sorry for not knowing about American incidents that happened way before I was born
Yeah, maybe some good kangaroo jokes! G'day, Mate! :rofl (Klaus, do people really confuse Austria with Australia?)
Well, normally I'd say mostly Americans confuse us with Australia but since I'm on an american board and don't want a dozen rifles to point at me I keep my mouth shut :ashamed001
Yeah, I know, but it's a sad fact. And, also, many people also mistake Austria (if they don't think of cangaroos) as a part of Germany or even mistake us as German people. But the really sad thing is that the guys from Al Kaida and other terrorist groups already know where we are located on the map... But that's another story
Are the mix ups mostly by citizens of the United States of America ? Do Europeans have the same geographical knowledge deficiencies ?
Really, wow, that's tough... @Lee: Well, I'm sure we Europeans also have our deficiencies in our geographical knowledge. You know best what's near to you...
