Easy. It's Atlantis. Not only Americans would fail here, also ancient Greeks because they located Atlantis somewhere in the Aegean sea where an undersea quake sunk a couple of islands. Claiming Atlantis was lost and can't be found, of course, is cheap. It takes the illuminated mind of a trained alchemist to see the truth behind the blindwork of the temple knights and the dark forces of the Vatican.
Americans might do better on average at Ancient Greek geography than Ancient Greeks would at American geography, but it’d be close.
Lemuria? It's gotta be Lemuria, right?

That's the Medditerain't, right there.
From the Latin roots medi: middle terra: earth ain't: nah bruh
Its in the middle of that earth thingy, and ain't, clear as night.
is that the floating trash island we formed from dumping plastic into the oceon
No, you're talking about UK
It's the Euro-wan aka: 欧湾
Mainland Europe has always claimed it as the inseperable（不可分割）part of the European Union, meanwhile, the ruling government of Euro-wan, the Union of Europe, insists its a separate independent country. Some residents of Euro-wan are trying to rename the country into Republic of Euro-wan
If you ask me, is it a country?
Sorry I don't want to hurt the feelings of the 400 Million+ Mainland Europeans. No comment.

Greater Portugal
Ah yes, Pirezia...
Context: In Hungary, a group of people started to interview people of the street about their geography knowledge, and it involved the fictional country, "Pirezia". It also became a meme.
Duh that's Atlantis, obviously.
Okay but what is that country really? It's obviously not real, but where is the shape from? Is it just made up, is it another country (I wouldn't know which one) or is it the shape of some fictional place?
It looks like Antarctica to me, but I'm too lazy to check.
I thought so too, but Antarctica has that big arm which isn't present here

A new island? The Dutch must be stopped at all cost.

I suspect the number would be a little lower. Do not underestimate how many confidently incorrect idiots there are out there.
"it's mine now" - england
It's probably not Listenbourg.

I am a native; it's a very multicultural island, but I have never seen an American coming here.
It's Hy-Brasil, it turns out it's a lot further south than people think

That's Atlantis, but it seems to have grown recently
When the fuck did France float into the Atlantic?
That's North Canary Island. It's not on many maps because it formed recently from a submerged volcano. Maybe you remember hearing about that a few years ago?
