As a former teacher I can tell you they were taught where africa is and what it is but I doubt they listened. My students didn't. It wasn't for lack of effort on my part I can assure you of that.

Africa is a Continent but a county is a human concept of a area ruled by someone.

Lol! They probably Didn't listen while in History Class =)

I feel your pain. For me it's a sad thing when people can't tell Austria from Australia, for example.

Never under estimate the ignorance and uninformed views of the public as a whole. It's what the powers that be want, it is easier to control and manipulate the masses when kept ignorant and uninformed.

Feel free to rant. Those questioners usually talk about Asia as a country too and write about all Asians as though they look alike and speak the same language. Hello. The internet is there and available for you to LOOK things up and LEARN. Find out the difference between CONTINENT and COUNTRY and do some research on the vast differences between the cultures and peoples of the CONTINENT of Africa and the CONTINENT of Asia. There, I have joined your rant. :-)
