I ve noticed that most americans are not aware how important the US is for the rest of the world.
I don't even think it is a matter of education, except for some elite northwestern european countries, where it matters. Most people learn a lot about the US through the movies and random news headlines. It's what always happens with global leaders.

My experience has generally been the opposite: many Americans overestimate their country’s importance in the world. Just because the U.S. does or says something doesn’t mean other countries will necessarily go along with it.
- mruts 8y agoI honestly don't think you could over-estimate the USA's role in world's affairs for the last 100 or so years. The West is lead by the USA. And I don't even live in the US and I think that.
