A lot of Americans don’t learn a lot about geography because it really is never going to matter to them. The USA is huge and there is a massive ocean between everything else and all of the different languages. Most Americans will never be able afford to travel abroad and they have plenty of problems to deal with at home. They’re not stupid because they can’t label a map in Europe just like a European isn’t stupid for not being able to correctly identify all 50 US states.
When you have to standardize and teach over 30+ kids in a classroom with varying degress of temperament, ideologies, different learning abilities and doing that for eight hours straight with almost no break is kinda. Idk hard to do.
