Subreddit Rules
Keep It European
Memes should be relevant to Europe, Europeans, or European culture. Off-topic memes will be removed.
No Hate Speech or Bigotry
Racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and other forms of hate speech are strictly prohibited. Satire is welcome, but not at the expense of marginalized groups.
No Spam or Self-Promotion
Don’t flood the sub with your own content or links. Participate genuinely.
English Preferred, but Multilingual Welcome
While English is the main language, memes in other European languages are allowed if the humor is clear or a translation is provided.
Be Kind and Constructive
Disagreements happen, but keep discussions civil. Personal attacks, trolling, or harassment will result in bans.

Average American couldn't name those countries.
Shouldn't it be that those are the only countries Americans can name?
This one's Jeff, he's my favorite country.
he meant what he said.
I imagine it applies to the subset that travels to Europe.
I wonder what share of the population or each country can find their own country in a world map.
In my experience, most would recognize the names of the countries, but at least half could not label them on a blank map. Our schools usually teach this around ages 10-14 and most people haven't cared since then.
"Pasta country, flamenco country, cheese country and the island where they talk like me but with a weird accent."
An usian.
Nah it's Pasta, European Mexico, Baguette, and Redcoatland
The white dot between France and Spain is Andorra and the one nearest France and Italy is Monaco. I feel like both of them should be filled in, especially Monaco.
