Yes this one is honestly a bit apples to oranges-ish, I can kinda understand though because Germany is about the size of a single US state.
Though it's very hard to fuck up western Europe if you ever looked at a world map. Western Europe only has a handful of countries.
Compared to a country of 50 or so states where only 3 have a memorable shape (California, Texas, Florida), one has a memorable location (Alaska) and NYC being a household name.
