I think it's really interesting that you guys have geography as a subject that you study in depth! Probably explains a lot about American's generally poor geography skills that we don't. We did map studies when I was 8-9 years old, and had to learn to label the 50 states in 5th grade, but that was about it! The closest we had at my school was AP Human Geography, which I took in 9th grade, but that isn't really the same at all and hardly anyone took it. What kind of things do you do in a geography class? Like, is it all learning to label a map, or is it more than that?
