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.

Of course a country's going to focus on teaching their own history and what the country accomplished. The government wants people to be proud of their history and whether people like it or not America's done some amazing things in the relatively short time it's been around.
