>Switzerland

Our classes didn't really "focus" on anything in particular, OPs question implies they were biased or something? Because they weren't.
But the whole program was of course western-centric. That's normal, one doesn't start with the history of china.
We also had more of our local history and how our nation came to be if you want a summary go on wikipedia.

>World War 1 is not apartment because no Jews died (less than WW2 Holocaust), but Sparked by the death of Archduke Franch Ferdinand the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The fault is Serbian, but Germany is aggressor and not neccessarrily the culprit. First assault of BIplanes and amour.

Pretty much this.

USA

Grades 1-5:
Little bite-sized chunks of American History, mostly "Monarchy bad, America good, yay pilgrims!" There was also a bizarre focus on JFK in my 5th year.

Grade 6:
Ancient History, actually decent focus on Mesopotamia. Teacher had a lady-boner for Egypt, spent majority of time there and rushed through Greece and Rome, we were supposed to have a Medieval unit, but it amounted to one 45 minute period.

Grades 7-8:
Pretty sure History wasn't even covered, as I have literally no memory of anything being taught. Mostly just government and civil rights bullshit.

It's important to note that none of my classes were even called "History." It was always; "Social Studies".

Grade 9:
Actually good teacher, focus ran all over the fucking place, spent first 3rd of the year focusing on various religions (didn't even bother with Islam.) Then jumped to Renaissance, Industrialism, and a good unit on the French Revolution.

Grade 10: "World" History
SJW-type teacher. Regurgitated Renaissance and Industrial age stuff from last year, then enlightenment. Ran through American history with a daily reminders that this is "world history". WWII unit comes up, 2 months of Holocaust guilt, we literally had no idea why it even happened, just that the Nazis did it and we should feel bad. Then the remaining month on why Globalization is good and Socialism can be OK, but not if you're Russian.

Year 11: American History
One month of Native American guilt.
One month of "yay rebels!"
One month of "Booo Southern Rebels!"
A more in-depth look at WW1 than in the World History.
Oh fuck man, another 6 weeks covering the Holocaust.
Decent unit on the Cold War.

pretty decent based on what I remember, good teacher.
I'm even a pretty big naziboo, but the elimination of political opponents in nazi germany still intimidates me too much to consider it an ideal place to live, even with all the culture purported in the propaganda

Then there's a big gap. We were barely taught anything about Gauls or Franks in fact, probably because they were mostly conquerors and didn't brought anything important to learn.

>Medieval Christianity, rise of Christianity of Europe
>The feudal system in France, the knights, the nobles, the cities
>The place of the King of France and how he became more important throughout the decdades
>The discovery of the new world, the Spanish power, the Mediteranean being a crossroad of different cultures

Then another great gap, mostly because the Enlightenement, Louis XIV and all of that is taught in French class with Molière and friends.

>The French Revolution, the creation of the French Nation, NAPOLEON BONAPARTE
>The rise of nations in Europe


All that I described here was more-or-less what every high-schooler of France is being taught for their first year.
Then, for the two other years, it's a bit strange because it's not chronological. We don't follow an order but have to study themes.

>Economical and population growth in France (For years France was the most populated country of Europe, and it was so up until WW1. Also the Industrial Revolution).
>The different societies of France (Rural pre-XIXth, then urban centers, immigration, and today ghettos in the suburbs)

>War in the XXth Century, and the memory of war (Myths, Shoah)
>Cold war and modern guerilla conflicts

>Totalitarism and modern dictatures
>Hitler's nazism, Staline's communism, Mussolini's fascism

>The colonisation
>The great colonial Empire, the place of colonized populations, and the decolonization (Either violent wars like in Algeria, or peaceful decolonization)

>The 3 French Republics

France

- prehistory (how man evolved in Africa)
- the Bible (Old Testament stories and Hebrews, no mention of Jesus or New Testament)
- Athenian democracy (and how it wasn't really democracy as it excluded women, foreigners, and slaves)
- Roman cities and infrastructure
- Mohamed and the birth of Islam
- Charlemagne and his failed revival of Rome, contrasted with Justinian's success
- medieval Europe and the feudal system (oppression of the people by lords and clergy, Catholic obscurantist persecution of knowledge, women, and Jews) contrasted with the enlightenment and multicultural tolerance of the Islamic world
- the Crusades (atrocities committed by the Christian invaders in Muslim land)
- how Islamic knowledge and ideas finally made it to Europe leading to the Renaissance and Humanism, breaking the power of the Church and restoring human dignity and progress
- absolutist France, the totalitarian and arbitrary power of the king, and persecutions against Protestants
- slavery and the slave trade
- Enlightenment thinkers' use of knowledge to free the people from the shackles of king and Church
- Revolution and Declaration of Human Rights, the one good thing to come out of France
- Napoleon's proto-Hitler dictatorship, wars of conquest, propaganda, and oppression of women and blacks
- French colonial imperialism and slavery-like oppression
- Dreyfuss Affair and rise of antisemitism in France
- WW1 caused by French nationalism and revanchism (over rightfully German regions), the horrors of the war, with focus on colonial troops fighting for France
- the rise of Nazism caused by France treating Germany unfairly at Versailles, and how fascists almost took power in France as well
- French collaboration with the Nazis in WW2 and participation in the Shoah
- decolonisation and French colonial wars in Indochina and Algeria, where the French and Le Pen tortured civilians
- Cold War
- the EU and the hopeful end of nationalism and war

My teacher put a big emphasis on the WE WAZ PHOENICIANS, no idea why

>Italy

Prehistory, every single fertile crescent civilization (Akkadians, Hittites, Babylonia etc), Egypt, Persia. Then move onto Greece (Crete history, Athens, Sparta) and Alexandrian Empire.
Magna Grecia, Syracuse, Etruscans, Rome.
Barbaric invasions and the way it influences the Eastern Roman Empire.
Feudalism, the history of Charlemagne, Otto, every single pope that tried to gain political power other than spiritual. The history of the HRE. And of course Mohammad and the Islamic caliphates in the middle east.
The crusades.
Renaissance, Italian cities during the Middle ages (Venice, Pisa, Amalfi, Florence, Milan).
But also many things about Europe, like the Hundred years war and the Spanish Reconquista, the creation of the Ottoman Empire.
Expeditions around the world (Columbus, Vasco da Gama, Magellano etc). How the Americas were conquered, and some insights on very early colonialism and slavery. Sino Empire and Mongolians.
How Luther fucked up everything, religion wars, in Germany and France, the many councils that took place, Henry VIII.
The Spanish-English rivalry, the Netherlands and the way they developed their trades.
Copernican revolution, every war you can think of that happened in Europe at the time like the Thirty years war.

The two English revolutions, the succession wars, the American revolution, the seven years war, the Enlightenment, first industrial revolution, the French Revolution, Napoleonic wars, Vienna's congress, the second industrial revolution, the Crimean war, nationalism around Europe and the unification of Italy and Germany, American Civil war, history of Japan and colonialism around the world, Imperialism, the world wars with a focus in between on every single dictatorship (communism, fascism, nazism).
The foundation of ONU, Nato, the Warsaw pact and the Cold war, post-colonialism, Italy in the second half of XX century.

I'm sure I forgot many things. Here you study pretty much everything, as Italy wasn't even a thing for a while.

ofc it's bullshit, he was a Frank.

That anon probably wanted to point out the fact that, linguistically, Dutch is Frankish' closest ancestor.
Language being very important in the taxonomy of tribes, and thus, ethnicity, it would indicate the Dutch as the Franks' closest descendants.
The Franks' also originally settled in the Rhineland as foederati in the late antiquity, expanding towards the Rhine Delta and everything below.
On top of that, Charly himself may or may not have been born in the town of Herstal, modern day Belgium.
