ITT: We pretend like we're 14 and have just discovered history. I'll start.
Don't you guys think that the collapse of the Roman Empire was the worst thing to happen to Europe? If it wasn't for those uncivilised barbarians, we could be living in space by now. Also, fuck Christianity.
When do we learn about Japan??
FUCKING BRITS RUIN EVERYTHING!
Italy was in world war 2?
My favorite part of history is learning about the middle ages, with King Aurthur and his knights. I heard that the dragons from the stories were actually dinosaurs that hadn't died out yet, and I freaked out because that would actually explain everything! There couldn't possibly be millions of stories about dragons from that time period if they didn't see SOMETHING, right?
I'm not sure i want to move on from medieval history to christopher columbus though.
Idk why but i feel like humanity took a turn for the worst when we started technology. Its going to kill us
Viking berserker are so Cool!
You all had terrible schools or were dumb kids.
Anyway.
MORE MAPS! I Need more maps! I want a map for every hour of the first hundred days of the blitz!
Did anybody else get taught that Abraham Lincoln was on a fucking wooden raft as a child and saw slaves and swore to himself that he'd grow up to abolish slavery?
They literally conflated Abraham Lincoln and Huckleberry Finn during my impressionable years. America.

Same, but since then I've come to realise you need more than just maps. You also need context for what those maps are showing.

History is racist! We shouldn't teach parts of it because it will offend people!

Most 14 year olds I knew loved being racist and every other kind of socially unacceptable "ist" for the sake of edginess.
Then again I grew up in the south.
>>875060
Yeah, but dude, he also killed the hero who killed Hitler. That's pretty messed up.
the nazis were horrible people. i can't believe they killed 100000000000 gorrillian people. Did you know Hitler was Jewish? He also did meth and coke Daily
