@Foritus @whitequark oh god, in the us we were actually taught about the holy roman empire in school, and we aren't even on the same continent.
there were a lot of things skipped unless you tool more advanced classes, like they never mentioned us colonization of the philippines.
i did learn about hereditary peerage in the house of lords in class though.

@whitequark it's easy the answer is always "drink from the puddle, remember when the binmen were hard"
-
@IngaLovinde Holocaust is not mentioned whatsoever, so far as I can see

@whitequark this book is quite nationalist and biased, compared to the equivalent german test (which is a few-hundred question multiple-choice test of rather basic facts about the federal republic as of today, with a bit of history)
