We'd cover the same history every year: start around the 1500s, cover the Revolutionary War, "cover" the Civil War (I live in Alabama, so this was heavily revisitionist history being taught), cover WWI and WWII (this one in depth), and then maaaaaayyyybee talk a little bit about the Cold War, but never Korea or Vietnam. We had one year of "World History" in junior high where the teacher (who was a coach) told us about the "Mettaspotamians." There was also a year of "Alabama History" in elementary school that was basically one long lecture about how evil carpetbaggers from the North took advantage of Southerners. We had a "Government" class in senior year that was mostly about American political systems, but it was only a semester long. Other than those exceptions, everything was basically the same topics repeated over and over every year. glad to know state history in other states is done the same way it was done in mine. only thing i remember about that class was that apparently 'a lot of slaves took up arms to support the south in the civil war'... --- Taarsidath-an halsaam.
