Excerpt
Many people in the good ol' United States of America are culturally stupid. Not only about other nations and cultures, but also (and usually even more so) about their own homeland. Take, for instance, people's views on the state of Nebraska. If I went around asking people what they thought of Nebraska, probably most of them would say something to the effect of, "Isn't that like a bunch of farms or something?" Most people don't know more than two sentences worth of information about a state besides their own.
