How do Brits learn about the American Revolutionary War?
Do they learn about in more of a pro-England way, or do their history books show themselves as being in the wrong?

12 通の返信We do learn it but we don't spend much time in it because our country has been around for ages longer than yours. America is like a baby when it comes to age and history.

We don't. As a country that has been around for ages and has had tons of events there's no point learning about when there are so many other things to learn. Eg (Not in order): [spoiler]Romans/Celts Vikings Saxons Hastings Normans Middle Ages War of the Roses Tudors Stuart's Great fire of London Black Death Civil war Guy Fawkes Victorians Slave trade Industrial revolution The British empire WW1 WW2[/spoiler] Here's some stuff that isn't us: [spoiler]French Revolution 1920s America[/spoiler] That's all I can think of right now.

Well I mean the America didn't really win just Britain decided they didn't give a -blam!-. They thought the us wasnt worth it enough so they pulled out to focus more on the war with France. Britain already had Canada Australia and India which were far more valuable. I guess they were wrong

1 返信Sir Maximooseにより編集済み: 7/6/2016 1:25:13 AMIt's not often taught in schools as far as I know. It never came up in the 12 years of history lessons that I can remember anyway. What I can recall is the world wars, the black death, the battle of Hastings, a number of different monarchs and the lifestyle of the native Americans.

Most learn about it from loud-mouthed Yanks who act like they were there telling their bruh Georgie W "how to win dis -blam!-er". PS: There's no "right or wrong" about a lot of history. It's more a case of "some shit happened because some people couldn't sort things out with these other people".

1 返信We didnt. I only know a bit about it because every year fireworks and stuff. We did quite a bit on ww1 and 2. Tudors, romans, war of the roses, english civil war even the slave trade. But never did much on american history. One of the reasons being there is a building next to the river older than the US.

2 通の返信Probably the same way germans are taught WW2 act like it never happened. Wanna see a lot of people turn paste white and silence a room? Travel and bring up ww2 with people see what happens.

8 通の返信It's not really covered at all. We tend to learn about the world wars, the Crimean war, the English Civil War, among other things. The things that made Britain what it is today.

RedWineHangoverにより編集済み: 7/5/2016 1:25:24 PMIt isn't really taught much in school here in the UK. I studied history all the way through school and uni and studied the American Revolutionary War very very briefly when I was about 14. I guess at uni it depends on what the tutors specialise in - where I went I did a module of US history, but that covered the period from Pearl Harbor to Reagan's election.

To the school that I came from, they don't show us much about American history. We have to learn about our country and how it became what it is today. To be honest I did not even know what thanksgiving (is that correct?) was until someone told me.
