Origin
The trend started as an internet meme posted by a French user intending to test the stereotype of Americans having a poor grasp of European geography.On October 30, 2022, Gaspard Hoelscher, known as @gaspardooo on Twitter, shared a photoshopped map of Europe with an additional landmass attached to the Iberian peninsula.
