these guys all are schooled :

so you count Common knowledge as Square Root of 100? right?
Next time you go to Tehran go Terminal Jonoob and Starting asking around for Radical 100 chand misheh.
And What part of Iran are you talking about and what knowledge?
Have you ever been to Kohkileh and BoyerAhmad, ChaharMahal Bakhtiari, Lorestan?
for the Thousandth Time Gheitarieh, Zafaranieh, Gisha, SaadataAbad, Niavaran, Shahrak Gharb are not a fair representation of Iran.
But for the sake of the Argument let's go with Affluent Tehran crowd.
How many in In those Iranian Affluent folks can tell you about Hinduism, Budisim, Janism?
How many of them would be able to tell you about Turkamenistan Iran's next door neighbor?
How many of them would be able to talk about Vietnam?
How many Iranians would be able to name One Sunni Islam Scholar?
How many Iranians would be able to tell you about Bahaism Bab the original divsions and .....
Again just because we were behind in Iran and we know a whole lot of superficial stuff about Europe It does not make us knowledgeable about the world.
Ask a few more in depth Questions.
Ask Iranians who the heck was Martin Luther? Why is that Spaniards and French are mostly Catholics but Germans are split and what was the point of Anglican church.
Ask them Why Italians and Argentinians are historically close?
Ask Iranians if they know about Oliver CromWell and his significance?
Ask Iranians why Argentinians are mostly White but Brazilians have a more split population.
Ask Iranians who the Mestizos are?
