The majority of Americans know were Turkey is located but  prefer going to Europe than to Turkey.  Distance plays a role too.

so to sum it up in turkish;

 

bu turkiye konulari amerikalilarin seyinden assaa kasimpasa.

 Americans are more attracted to Europe and their culture rather than Turkey more appealing due to their location.  When it comes to the Middle East many Americans are a bit nervous about traveling to.  Over the past few years the anti-american sentiment has grown..so I believe this has deterred our citizens to travel to Turkey including the Middle East in general.

 

Our education system focuses primarly on American History and touches on World History.  So no of course many Americans are not familiar with Turkey and it´s history. Unless of course your a world traveler or interested in geography and world cultures.

Most Americans know virtually nothing about other countries or even regions of the U.S. other than their own. Therefore, most Americans know nothing about Turkey.

 

Even those Americans who are somewhat knowledgable about the rest of the world tend to know little about Turkey. As others have noted, Americans are most knowledgable about various European countries, especially the British Isles and France, followed by the other western European countries. There is also interest in Japan and China, as well as Australia.

 

Turkey is almost always lumped in as a "Middle Eastern", "Islamic" or even "Arabic" country. Other than geographers, historians or those with personal connections, there is no real understanding of what these terms mean, let alone the distinctions between them.

Is Turkey much further than say, Greece (many Americans go there) from the US?  I live 3 miles from the Greek Island of Kos!
