"Young adults worldwide are not markedly more literate about geography than the Americans."
I didn't miss it - I just went to the full report:

"Answering about 70% of questions correctly, young adults in Sweden, Germany and Italy ranked
the highest of the nine countries surveyed. They were followed by the French (61%) and
Japanese (55%). Respondents in Great Britain answered 50% correctly. Their peers in Canada,
the U.S. and Mexico answered fewer than half the questions correctly."
