Could be because they figure if you are the U.S. Dept. of State's website, you already know about the U.S.

If you're living in another country and came on the SD web site to learn about the US then you're s#!t outta luck, wouldn't you say?

One thing is undeniable for sure...they’ll have one hell of hard time finding it :)

I'm sure there are plenty of sites that someone can go to in order to learn about the U.S.

Would people from a foreign country even think about going to the Dept of State website to find out about the U.S.? Maybe, but they'd probably just 'google'.
