I'm Danish and I can't place every single African country. I can recognize many on their flags, but I don't know where all African countries are.
I know they're in Africa, at least. Boom, chalk one up for the Americans.
I also know where Mauritius is and how to say it, because I met a guy from there and he said it and I was like I've never heard of this place, and the he spelled it, and I added it to the list of words that I'd only ever read and not heard, and this pronounced incorrectly, like epitome and ethereal.
