I'm not from Europe, so I can't explain their half.
Most Americans know that Europe exists, know minor history about it, and know typical tourist destinations of it plus major cities. The knowledge comes to a grinding halt when between Italy and Russia, but what can I say? Can EUROS name all those countries?
The small minority of Americans that actually sneer back at Europeans are exactly that: small. They seem more because they all have big mouths
There is an extremely small minority of Americans that creates the "Europeans are asshats" garbage, and actually believe it. They're typically conservative and see anyone who's successful (AND disagrees with them) as an elitist *******.
