This is the most depressing thing I've heard today. The Swedes ruled Europe for 50 years and had the strongest army in Europe for 100. Their accomplishments were brilliant. Oxenstierna was the greatest man to ever have lived. As an American, I am saddened to hear that your schools have chosen to ignore the greatest accomplishments of your country. The Goths made all of Europe tremble, as Moscow, Warsaw, Berlin and Copenhagen all fell at some point to Swedish arms. So glorious. Such a shame.

Here, where you live determines what perspective on American history you get. In more liberal areas, it's all about how white people took everything from everyone and ought to be ashamed and how progressivism in an era of corruption ought to be the model for combating the same issues now that have been caused by an overextension of that same progressivism. Conservative areas have lessons that are very pro American and ignore most of her faults and wrongdoings. Opposite sides of the same coin. Negationism is great.

Brief history of Finland (after the Hyper War, naturally):
>Before 1100: literally nothing happened. Ever.
>1100-1809: Finland becomes Sweden's backyard. Also nothing happens.
>1809-1917: Sweden gets into a fight with Russia because Russia is bffs with Napoleon but Sweden hates him. Russia marches their troops to Finland just to see if they can. They can indeed as the Swedes give it up pretty much without a fight. So they decide to keep it.
>1917-1939: The communists seize power in Russia, so the top brass of Finland go see Lenin and ask if we can please be a country now. Lenin says yes, figuring that Finland will just become communist as well and join the USSR. We celebrate our independence by immediately having a civil war, between the nationalists and the communists. Oops, it seems we killed all of the gommies in the war. So we don't join the USSR. The nationalists that are in power also turn Finland into a kingdom for like two weeks just to piss off the social democrats, but the German to-be-king pussies out and is never crowned. So we say it was just a prank.
>1939-1945: FUCKING RUSSIANS GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY REEEEE
>1946-2008: Finland goes from a poor agrarian shithole into a developed country scoring top marks in almost all metrics of national performance. To this day no one is sure how.
>2008-2016: Spurdo invented. Recession begins and the country goes down the shitter. At least we have easy neetbux.

>You are wrong on both charges
Sweden had one of the biggest army in Europe after the 30 years war. They also had one of the most well trained armies at the beginning of the 1700 century

>At best we simply ruled the north and we never had an army strong enough to rival Russia.

You did. Russia was able to mobilize a larger army, but could not put all of it into action simultaneously.

>That never fucking happened

Sweden captured Moscow in 1610
Sweden capture Warsaw twice once in 1656, and again in 1705
the rest is false, Sweden laid siege to both berlin and copenhagen but they never made it into the city
>>
>>2144778
Ahem, Sweden manufactured the majority of the world's firearms at the time. They were the best equipped, trained, organized, and provisioned in Europe. They beat the Russians quite badly during the Ingrian War and the Second Northern War, and in fact the Russians couldn't even begin to compete until after the Petrine reforms following the crushing defeat at Narva.

In 1610 they retook Moscow on behalf of the Tsar. In 1656 Brandenburg swore fealty to the Swedish Crown after the Great Elector confronted by the Swedish Royal Army in East Prussia and Karl X took Warsaw as well as the whole of Greater Poland. 1658 Karl took Copenhagen after marching across the frozen Baltic. So yes, all of that happened.

I know you love the swedenYES! memes and all that and that's fine but how does glorifying war have any place in modern education? I always hear this. "You were so badass! The lion of the north maan! You used to be vikings!" It's like, yeah, and most other nations have had some succesful imperial/military period, but why would you paint that as a positive thing? It goes against all modern values.

>if all it has going for it is that it's the [current decade]
I'm simply saying that that period should be taught as it was. And what it was was warring states going at it for honor and glory. And that also brought with it mass death and hardship. And teaching it that way is not some biased way to teach it. It's simply how it was.
>>2145119
>Why even resort to this it's the current year argumentation?
Yeah I fucked up a bit there, I only meant that there's no reason to glorify the war when we know that it was not only that, but there was also a lot of needless suffering that came with it. That's not some conspiracy, it's just fact.
>>2145120

The Netherlands. It usually starts with the beginning of the 80 Years War against the Spanish and the Golden Age. Then the United East India Company and a few of it's exploits, the Tulip Bubble, Rembrandt, and a few Dutch-English wars. Unfortunately they leave out all the actually interesting stories, like the Dejima trading post, the wars in the Indian Ocean with Chinese pirate lords, and several stories of exploration, like the discovery of Australia and New Zealand. Even the conquest of the Spanish silver fleet is left out.
I also have a gut feeling that slavery is now a major topic in history class and that the name 'Golden Century' is going to be dropped soon.
>>
>>2145111
Because modern values are shit. The only difference between imperialism then and now is that we make the brown people fight each other on our behalf. Peace in the modern era is a lie.

The reason the Swedes should be glorified for their military accomplishments is because they established a unique system that created a very lopsided balance of power in favor of the lower class, one that the rest of Europe wouldn't reach for another 200-250 years. She turned a state that otherwise should not have succeeded into a powerhouse.

There is glory in war, but not honor. Modern education likes to overlook the fact that the world is just as violent today as it was 400 years ago, and while the old guard may have calmed down their expansionist policies, the upstarts have carried the mantle forward. War is a positive thing for the victor; the primary purpose of war is to secure resources for your own people that you would not otherwise have access to because it's easier to take by force than it is to build yourself or trade.
>>
>>2145117
Sweden had the first national army and formalized military administration. They had lost just as much as any of the other major powers except for Austria.

The Russians were beat on numerous occasions.

Swedes are Goths

And no, but they held back the Russians and kept the territory they had taken from Russia during the Ingrian War. That amounts to a victory, as it was first and foremost a Russian invasion of Karelia and Livonia
>>
>>2145130
Those wars benefitted Sweden more than it hurt them, right up until the end (because Karl XII didn't know how to sign a peace treaty). That needless suffering inflicted on others brought great power and wealth back to the Fatherland and its effects were felt by the common people.

>the Swedes ruled Europe

They ruled forsaken shitholes (Finland, part of the Baltics and Pomerania) which turned into bigger shitholes under swedish rule.

The rest of their glorious deeds consisted on Mongoling their way through Germany as subservient goys of the french jew master (whilst slurping metric tons of turk semen); Mongoling their way through Polan (whilsh slurping even greater quantities of turk semen); and try to Mongol their way through Russia.

Which was a mistake because the ruskies had learned by then how to deal with Mongols, and not even the Swede King showing up himself in Kebabland to request a new, extra, gazillion-tier suppy of turk semen to revitalize his men could change the outcome.

Which was a bukkake for King Cuck in the turkish dungeons and a gangbang on Sweden by all their neighbours, which, foe some strange reason didn't quite ended in the razing and total destruction of Sweden.

Dear God, this won't breathe any ounce of sense to anyone that hasn't studied history under "l'Education nationale", but I hope I did it justice. Also, I'm recovering from a hefty tooth extraction, so might've left some mistakes here and there.

Scotland. (Scottish education system is separate from the rest of the UK)
Ngl, the entire Scottish history curriculum takes a massive shit on creative freedom and attempts to apply 21st century nationalist perceptions of the world to everything in what is frankly an offense to serious historical analysis.

>Hunter-gatherers and how they transitioned to farmers, applicable to Scotland because of all the prehistoric remains we have here
>Wars of Independence (1290s-1320s) taught at age 12 with no information given about the wider medieval context and viewed through a reductionist lens of Scotland vs. England
>Civil Rights in the USA
>The First World War, but through a Scottish perspective so fuck studying anything but rationing and the Western Front
>Everything that everyone else on this thread learned about the rise of the Nazis
>Social and economic changes in Britain from 1750-1900, dry topic that could have been interesting if it hadn't been taught to us like we were infants
>The "Democratisation" of Britain over the same period, looked at electoral reforms and shit. Again, could have been interesting but just ended up being a patronising mess of dates.
>Wars of Independence again, this time we actually learned that nobles on both sides were backstabbing cunts and switched sides regularly and that nationalist sentments of a similar style to the 19th century onwards (i.e. the Braveheart complex) didn't really exist in the middle ages. They still attempted to pull that shit though.
>The fucking Nazis again (I got so bored by this point that I found a loophole in the assessment for this unit and after aguing with the teacher was able to do my big piece of coursework on the formation of Germany. Got an A)
>In the final year we looked at the modernisation of Japan, really interesting topic and we actually looked at academic sources.

Funny, where I studied we learned that the crown transfer of 1807 was actually what saved the country from fragmenting into irrelevant regional quarreling states. Everything else, not really biased one way or another.

Also, too much focus on regional rebellions and uprisings without providing greater context on related events. Like superficially studying the events of the Revolt of the Lash, but not the fact that the ships were it took place, the Minas Geraes-class battleships, apparently sparked a massive arms race in other South American states and left the entirety of Europe struck dumb when they were purchased.

Seeing that everything after 1885 is mostly ignored I'd say it was pretty shit, skipping the entire modern history of Bulgaria, which also happens to be some of the best our country has to offer, especially WW1 and the Balkan wars, still leads to people regarding Russia as the big brother that is always willing to protect us and will never do harm which leads to the people being fucking uneducated and causing the majority of the problems that Bulgaria has today.

Our history is barely portrayed at all, because all of the historians, writers, poets and journalists are the fringe minority from the 90's who had pan-romanian sentiments. And they monopolized all aspects of moldovan history, by romanian washing it and claiming it was romanian.

>Basically some parts here and there about medieval era

>1812 RUSSIA ANNEXED EASTERN MOLDOVA AND IT WAS A CRIME AGAINST THE ROMANIAN KIN RUSSIANS ARE SCUM WE WOULD BE PART OF ROMANIA TODAY

>some other things about how life was back then

>1859 WAS WHEN ROMANIA WAS CREATED AND THE ROMANIAN KIN ALL REJOICED BECAUSE THEY HAD A STATE AND IT WAS MOLDOVANS WHO MADE IT THEREFOR WE ARE ROMANIANS AND WERE SEPARATED FROM OUR ROMANIAN KIN

>History then focuses on the history of the romanian state

>1918 ALL OF ROMANIA WAS UNITED INTO A SINGLE STATE MOLDOVANS VOTED TO JOIN THE UNION IT WAS THE WILL OF EVERYONE BECAUSE EVERYONE LOVED BEING ROMANIAN STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART

>1940 EVIL USSR TOOK US FROM ROMANIA IT WAS A TRAGEDY IT WAS ARBITRARY WE NEED TO FIX THE HISTORICAL MISTAKES AND UNITE WITH ROMANIA ONCE AGAIN

>1991 WE INDEPENDENT AGAIN BECAUSE WE WERE ROMANIANS AND HELD THE TRUTH FROM THE SOVIETS LONG LIVE ROMANIAN LANGUAGE AND ROMANIAN CULTURE WE ARE ROMANIANS

And so on and so forth. It's self-cucking in it's most direct sense. Nobody has an objective analysis of Moldovan history because everyone thinks that the moldovan identity was fabricated by the USSR, which is a historically an aberation to claim such a thing. Or that in 1917 Romania annexed the first moldovan republic, and people didn't want to unite because they didn't see themselves as romanians, but as moldovans. And this came from tons of villages all across the country with 100% moldovans living in them.


All of this is purposly ignored because it destroys their fringe pan-romanian narrativ. And nobody can do anything because they simply hold a cultural monopoly over everything.

In short, we need a revolution to shoot them all.

The golden age was sorta mashed together with Norgesveldet. Kyrre, Lagabote, etc. were spoken of, but I forgot to mention them. And I agree, they should have delved deeper into the civil war era.

>Banned patriotic organizations like the Patriotic People's Party and restricted activities of the Academic Karelian Society as justice minister
>Was a good Soviet bitch and orchestrated the war responsibility trials that were against the Constitution of Finland and basically the entire Finnish legal system, imprisoned innocent heroes like Risto Ryti who saved Finland from Soviet occupation
>Won the 1956 presidential election because the Soviets bribed enough electoral college members to vote against their party
>When the democratically elected PM Fagerholm appointed a few ministers critical of the Soviet Union, Kekkonen broke up the government even though it enjoyed the confidence of the legislature and appointed his own, pro-Soviet government to replace it
>During the 1962 elections, asked the Soviets to send a note that destroyed the anti-Soviet conservative-social democratic coalition and their candidate, Olavi Honka, was forced to resign. This destroyed the final remnants of Finnish democracy for more than 20 years, because after this period there was no true opposition to his rule until the Constitutional Right Party was established in the mid-80's. Finnish system closely resembled the block party system of East Germany.
>Appointed his incompetent friends into positions inside the government and state corporations regardless of their abilities
>His policies caused economic distress on a massive scale, unemployment was so high that hundreds of thousands of Finns had to move to Sweden
>Tried to get a socialist government to declare state of emergency so he could rule as a dictator in 1968
>Because he didn't want to have elections, his term was unconstitutionally extended by the Parliament
>Forced a socialist government into power despite electoral results in 1978
>His legacy is economic distress and destruction of Finnish democracy by finlandization; he failed his only goal, which was to get the Soviets to return Karelia.

Always Breitenfield.

The Father of Modern War, Gustavus Adolphus almost certainly was not. But he may very well have been the Father of the Modern World. Because then, at that place, at the moment when the Saxons broke and the Inquisition bade fair to triumph over all of Europe, the king of Sweden stood his ground.

And proved, once again, that the truth of history is always concrete. Abstractions are the stuff of argument, but the concrete is given. Whatever might have been, was not. Not because of tactics, and formations, and artillery, and methods of recruitment—though all of those things played a part, and a big one—but because of a simple truth. At that instant, history pivoted on the soul of one man. His name was Gustavus Adolphus, and there were those among his followers who thought him the only monarch in Europe worthy of the name. They were right, and the man was about to prove it. For one of the few times in human history, royalty was not a lie.

England:
1.) Roman occupation of Briton, although this mostly covers the initial invasion and pacification, not the later fall.
2.) Tudors
3.) Henry VIII
4.) Elizabethan era

Then you move onto GCSE's, which can get into specialized history subjects, but I believe the main subject is:
World war 2; Looking at the outbreak of the war and the situation at the end of the war

Then you move onto A-Levels. Which get so specialized that typing them out is worthless; I did The English civil war and the American war in Vietnam, then at A2 it was 'History of geo-politics post 1945' and a 4000 coursework where you set the question. I did the Great Game, with the question about it aggravating Russo-Anglo tensions.

>How is your countries history portrayed
Early studies is mostly about giving little kids some understanding of the formation of England, later on it's about critical study for yourself, so there's no real 'here's the line'. Although there have been talks of a civics module for something like that...

You forgot a whole lot about Vikings, and some about Gustav Vasa.

We were taught in school that Vasa jewed the catholic church. This was taught in a generally positive light, although it was told as more of a political thing, to give himself more power and wealth, rather than the Papal states.

Well, how else would you want to describe our own histories, if it's taught of so poorly in our own schools? National history and nationalism is generally in decline in Europe
