Literally: nothing. We were focusing on general European and Hungarian history, if I hadn't researched it myself i'd know very little of the U.S. Only that you threw a hissy fit over some teas and threw it in the ocean, had some black slaves, but they're not anymore.

That said, pretty much everyone was smug and looked down upon U.S history. I mean, I guess I can't blame them, when your country is like 5 times older.

Fair enough.

We had a guy in my platoon that was extremely Christian and thought we were doing God's work. He believed this for about 6 months until he realized that most of us in the platoon were not relgious at all or loosely believed in something. It was strange, it was litteraly a culture shock for him, but brought on by his own cuntrymen. He was from the deep south/bible belt though.

I can see why you might think that but we are incredibly hyper super Christian, by the standards of the first world at least. Literally even the suggestion that Obama might not be Christian (he is Christian btw) was enough to legitimately harm his campaign. There are legitimately people who want us to be an actual literal Christian theocracy. One of them (Ted Cruz) is running for president, and has openly said so on numerous occasions. Back during Obama's first(? Second I think?) presidential campaign, the governor of Texas literally called out to the people to pray for God to send a rainstorm to stop Obama's speech. By first world Western standards, we are *incredibly* religious.

That's why we're so weird about sex and nudity, by Western standards.

>I can see why you might think that but we are incredibly hyper super Christian


Lets me put it to you in simpler terminology, Christians (and every other sect under the boot of the federal government and it's institutions) are nothing but cattle, they serve, they work, they pay taxes, they watch satanic porn and masturbate to it, they buy and consume satanic merchant movies,music and drink their fluoride contaminated water and eat the poisoned food till their heart's content.

But in NO WAY does this establishment allow or even listen to what christians demenad, concerning internal and external policies on matters that really have a life changing effect.

because christians are pussies, they're bred and brainwashed to be pussies, sheep to be fucked and slaughtered.

Kek. Not exactly,

I remember being taught how McCarthyism had similar reasoning to the Salem Witch Trials, meaning it had no logical reasoning behind it.

Though, we are told that Stalin was a scary and ruthless leader, and very much comparable to Hitler.

I was also taught that Russia had huge part in WWII and Stalingrad was the turning point in the war, which I think most people agree on. We also were told they suffered the most losses

The whole Cuban Missile Crisis is probably why you guys are seen as bad guys, but I'd say we're a little more understanding now

That was more of a situation where no one really won, but no one really lost either. They (well actually more like the Brits) burned down the White House, we burned down York, everyone just kinda fucked each other, metaphorically speaking.

Well, I guess there was definitely one group that did truly lose, and that was the Native Americans. Already on decline even before the war happened, they suffered proportionally massive casualties -- the biggest by far, proportionally -- and the fact that a number of Native peoples sided with the Brits ended up leaving them with no reliable European allies after the war was over and the Brits left. Their defeats at the Thames and Horseshoe Bend left them vulnerable and at the mercy of the American government, who after the war pretty much flat out considered them all the Savage Enemy that must be broken and destroyed.

But for America and Canada/Britain, it was just a stalemate.

We watched a lot of Michael Moore documentaries about how shitty America is in school.

Our religious studies teacher made us watch a documentary that showed bible camps with lots of crazy Christians who thought they can be possessed by the holy spirit and indoctrinated little children into loving George Bush.

In fact that religion teacher was a very politically outspoken leftie who hated America and kept mocking an American exchange student that was around for a week.

In our Latin class we had a theme of comparing the Roman Empire vs the US for half a year and how similar they are in justifying wars against other countries, torturing people and spreading their culture.

But in our actual history lessons the US was mostly just skipped over, we learn the French revolution instead of the American one and America really is only taught once the Cold War begins.

My understanding is that in the grand scheme of things we both got what we wanted out of it. It's probably a big deal to the leafs because when you're a made up country you have to make up a bit of history to forge that identity..

Anyway, last thought on the OP, which you've probably heard a million times: one thing that we don't cover, at all, is the American revolution. Everything about America in our history is really 20th century stuff.

I should have said how his invasion was fucked by winter and scorched earth. Also, if you don't think Stalin fucked you guys you're delusional. What he did to the military and even aero-nautical engineers before the war is one of the main reasons for the shit performance in the Winter War and begining of the German Invasion (Not to mention the early tactic of no strategic retreats.) I remember one show with a Soviet General saying we didn't win that war because of Stalin,we won it inspite of him. Not to mention Uncle Joe's Happy Pogroms and Gulag Time.

He wasn't fucked by winter, look at the fucking date. He had all the fucking summer and autumn.

>implying the entire Ontario school curriculum isn't just "lol omg look how dumb and barbaric these evil Americans are ehhhh?"

our schools are a massive propaganda campaign to keep up the Liberal facade, I always had a laugh when they talked about the American "melting pot" in such sinister terms then praised our "Mosaic" when I knew very well how shitty that mosaic actually as.

but this is for everything though, there is always a bit of "yea we did X but the Americans were SOOO much worse!" or other assorted wank.

and you wonder why so many idiots here unironically hate America beyond mere banter

really? I think the US anthem is generic and boring as fuck. yours is fucking great though

>>57476684
only the truth
and that is why everybody hates you

Is that because the anthem is just about the Brits bombarding Fort McHenry during the Battle of Baltimore for 25 hours and accomplishing nothing?

How is that ideological? Perhaps the weathwr is overstated. However, what's your reasoning for it being ideological?
What is your reason for his failure? That he had troops tied up in the Peninsular Campaign so he had to really on Prussians and Austrians with poor moral? That shitty Russian roads, increasingly poor forage for horses and supply estimates based on a quick campaign damned him? The Russian soldiers fought harder than he expected but until Moscow the Russians didn't seem to have a clear strategy so superior Russian tactics aren't really the cause. Discounting Russian achievements would be the only ideological possibility but then Scorched Earth as a tactic would have never been mentioned.

"Chandler argues that Napoleon was already beaten by the time that the Russian winter set in. He also notes that the French suffered as much from the heat of the summer, which caused many men to drop out and killed many horses. The cold made the disaster worse, but did not cause the French defeat.

Chandler praises the endurance and skill in combat of the Russians, and says that the strategy of trading space for time in order the blunt Napoleon’s offensive was correct. However, he wonders whether or not this was the intention from the start, suggesting that the Russians retreated because of weakness rather than a deliberate plan. He contends that it is difficult to see a clear Russian plan until after Napoleon reached Moscow.

In summary, he argues that Napoleon’s military abilities had declined. He was less energetic than in the past. He failed either to supervise his subordinates, or to take charge himself at the decisive point. He over-estimated the ability of his army and under-estimated the Tsar. Finally, the enterprise was simply too big."

I am not him but you didn't really get what you wanted out of it. We just eventually stopped because after Napoleon was stopped you didn't really force our sailors into your navy anymore and you got BTFO at New Orleans so both of us just kinda stopped.

The natives got BTFO into extinction though, they definitely lost lol.

Their single biggest fuckup was compromising on their principles (and constitution) in order to get southern states to join the union.

Rapid expansion westward and southward seemed like a good idea at the time, but failing to enforce the constitution only led to the civil war a few decades later. Insurmountable cultural differences later led to the dumbfuck jesusland voters of today.


The south is the barbaric third world wasteland. Americans should have recognized this early on and washed their hands of it.

You live in a failed state run by actual gangsters and hitmen who regularly shoot students for protesting them.

You're never getting California back, we paid you for it and you accepted the offers in the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Limits and Settlement between the United States of America and the Mexican Republic. You lazy morons never even noticed the thousands of tons of gold lying under your feet for the 150 years you owned Alta California, while an American discovered shiny yellow rocks in the river less than a year after we annexed the place.
