Even worse: sometimes they do ask "state" and have a dropdown list of American states. If you live in another country that does have states, you're SOL.
Why would your dropdown still have those when I selected a different country?
Also why's the country picker at the bottom? I've learned to fill it out first and scroll back up the hard way. Otherwise you never know when fields will completely change when you select a country, or just discard everything you've entered previously.
