Uh... yeah... It's called a continent.

I wonder if all of those phony borders drawn by former european colonists should be rethought to better reflect the ethnic and linguistic reality of the Africans.

some of those borders have virtually no meaning to people on the ground ... others are heavily monitored. Old tribal areas were split when borders were drawn ... and old tribal differences still affect politics across Africa

You don't want to start of more wars by doing that.

I had a member here tell me I should mind my own business about American politics, because I'm Canadian. Another, recently told me "Americans don't have time to care about the rest of the world."

Many white Americans believe they were there first.

I've had several members here, message me directly, to ask about what it's like to live in a socialist country. Again, I live in Canada.

I believe this map you've provided is much needed in some cases.

Some of my family is from Canada love it

I get it too. That I have no clue about what is going on in the US as I live in Australia.

@Jolanta

These are clearly projections, as they aren't aware of what's happening in other countries and expect you wouldn't either.

The part that is so completely ignorant is the suggestion that I should have the audacity to comment on Trump, or that I shouldn't care about American politics at all, because I don't live there.

For a nation with such a superiority complex, so many of its citizens are really stupid.

American geographic knowledge overall is a joke. Americans are so ethnocentric that they do not believe that anything exists outside our physical boundaries.
