Post silly anecdotes from your're are country's history.
I'll start
When the communists took over the courts after September 1944, 20 out of the 43 ministers, influential statesmen, high clergy, who directly challenged Hitler and stepped up for the jews, for executed for being Nazis. The rest spent their lives in concentration camps.
The person who declared war on Nazi Germany got cangoroo court'd and executed as well.

Some American history 'facts' that will not die.

"The Founding Fathers nearly made German an official language!"

"George Washington was given the chance to be king and he turned it down!"

"The Constitution was strongly influenced by Iriquois law!"

>Constitution was influenced by Iroquois Law

I've never heard this statement. Where did it originate?

Not him, but as someone who heard that in grade school (but got told it was idiocy back in high school), I'm guessing it's because they want to give the little kiddies an enormously simplified view of history. The Revolution, which is a big deal, is justified because after all, England is the land of absolute tyrant kings.

Then they need to have something else to explain where ideas of American representative democracy come from without needing to explain how the English government actually worked.

Tbh founding fathers being brave enlighten men rebelling against evil totalitarian king makes for a better narrative than bunch of slave owners being butthurt about they having to pay taxes after a war to protect their worthless asses from French.

People have a similar misconception about the French revolution. It wasn't an uprising against some powerful absolutist monarch. It was more like kicking over a house that was already extremely weak from termites. The king could already barely hold his own against the nobles. If those upper-class idiots had just done a better job of managing the economy and feeding people, maybe all the millions of deaths could have been avoided, and France would simply have transitioned peacefully to an England-style constitutional monarchy.

That would have required the king not to be a complete idiot.
