I didn't learn anything about US Geography at either Primary or Secondary school. In fact the only thing we really covered in school was some bits of History that involved America like WW1 and WW2 and for some reason we did something about Prohibition in the 20s but that was it really. My Geography classes were split into Geology (glaciers, volcanoes, weather, rivers etc) and Demography (Tribes, movement of people, growth of cities) and History was split into European History and British History (GCSE and ALevel was very politics based).

I've no idea where half the states are in America or what their capitals are. Don't particularly care.
