I refuse to believe that random Europeans have even heard of states like Wisconsin and Montana, let alone have a clear conception of what the people there are like.

The states Europeans would know about or have a vague notion or stereotype about them: CA, TX, NY, FL, NV for the obvious reasons and they're vacation destinations. More recently due to media, popular culture, and recent events. OK (musical), KS (Wizard of Oz), NJ (Sopranos), OR (riots, antifa), LA (Mardi Gras) may conjure up some impressions.
