My son Charlie was chuckling at the idea that, were he king of the world, he would change the names of the Republic of Congo (Red) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (Blue) to Eastern Congo (Red) and Western Congo (Blue).
He finds this hysterically funny.
I, on the other hand, think that this is a testament of the poor state of American geography education that you cannot even make a joke like this, and have anyone understand this.
It is supremely difficult to make a joke to someone about something which they are profoundly ignorant of.
