I guarantee that a random Italian living in a tiny nowhere village knows more about the US than your average US citizen knows about Italy. I don't know a single person who doesn't know the difference between Washington state and Washington the city.
I have however spoken to Americans who couldn't point to the United States on an atlas.
To be fair if we're talking geographically, it'd be more fair to compare knowledge of the US to knowledge of the whole of Europe.
If we're talking about history it's a bit different.
