A bit like a map on how Europe is perceived by Americans, where whole Germany is Bavaria.

As if Americans have any idea what Bavaria is. And if they could even name one city in Germany it certainly wouldn't be anything in the south, it'd be Hamburg, because hamburgers lol

I feel like Berlin would be more famous, with it being the capital and the Berlin wall.
