Interesting to note American sense of scale is much different. Many states are as big as countries. Yet traveling between them takes nothing more special than you need to drive a car. The sense of what is an appropriate amount to drive for common errands, or what it takes to visit a friend, are very different. Though that distance also is what makes politics in America so awkward. You could travel as little as one city over, and the same social/political issues simply don't exist. Even something as simple as the way people dress, or what advertisements are considered acceptable to have on street display, can shape the area. I'd venture to guess many Americans don't appreciate this fact either. It's hard to think of some place we consider so accessible as "some place else that isn't us". Leading to no amount of confusion when people from such different regions try to have dialogues.
