It's not just the US. Unless you have a job that utilizes all these subjects you are going to forget most of it as it falls into the background of your memory, and we think about our jobs or family or day-to-day things. Sherlock Holmes didn't have access to the internet btw. There is no excuse for being uneducated in this day and age, and if most americans don't know where Iran is (some don't know where America is) despite being told these locations in school, then we'd have to agree the system is broken and needs a major rework from every angle.
