And to think that the average Australian can correctly distinguish between Kazahkstan and Kyrgizistan, and name all the principle rivers of Siberia. It is nothing short of flabbergasting.

the stans (excluding pak and afgan which are easy to find) go in alphabetical order clockwise so its really not that hard

JFC Mexico has a lot of states. I don't even know how many I could name let alone label --
YucatanQ.R.OaxacaChiapasBaja CaliforniaSonora?Jalisco?I think there's a state called the equivalent of "Mexico State" or something, right? Like where the capital is located? That's about all I got right now.

lol @ doghead/cathead
would also guess 90% of australians really dont know how many states australia has because what IS a state and what is a territory and who the hell knows?

South Australia bothers me because
1.) There is already a "South" state, NSW.
2.) There is Western Australia and Northern Territory (which may or may not be a state.) Having "Southern" in its name could even opened itself to hella bunch of Southern Cross opportunities. But now, it's South Australia, kinda like South America but not really.
― pplains, Friday, 1 November 2013 18:59 (ten years ago) link
South Dakota, South Carolina?

northern california, southern california, centralern california
― lag∞n, Friday, 1 November 2013 21:19 (ten years ago) link
i can't explain why, but I'd say -ern is more of a broad area of a location while straight up North This or South That is a proper name.
So maybe it's West Australia that needs to get in line, but still.

At any rate, consistency is needed.
