When I hear american people talk about history teaching it seems to almost always be america-centric. Do you learn much about the history of other countries?
When I did history we learned about the Middle East, China, Germany, Italy and America along with the history of England.

Just out of curiosity, how much do you know about the Whiskey Rebellion? How about the Teapot-Dome Scandal? How about the routing of the Grand Army of the Republic? Likewise, I don't believe I would know much about the events that happened in wherever you are from. Each country teaches the history most relevant to them. Later on, in High School (Secondary School) and university, do we broaden the range to more details about the rest of the world. The same way every other country does it.
