DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 The slavery thread inspired this. Elementary school: social studies (mix of US/world history, geography, and government) Middle school: US history, Virginia history High school: World Studies I (up to 1500), World Studies II (after 1500), AP European History, AP American History There were also government classes in there but I'm not counting those as history per se. I took AP Government and AP Human Geography. And say where your from unless it's indicated in your classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly focused on ancient western history, european and italian. Start to learn about America and Asia around Renaissance, mostly America's history, imperialism, colonialism and China/Japan. Issues like the american civil war, slavery and enslavement were approached but briefly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Prince ☆ 3,308 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I don't even remember the ones for primary school....I just know it was China, China and more China. (OK, maybe specifically the more significant dynasties) Then I moved to Australia. Secondary school, we learnt about a lot of ancient cultures (Greek, Egypt, more China). Something about the Black Plague then something about Japan. Gave up history when it came to the senior selective subjects because I hated it with great passion...

abra 40,910 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 It was always just called history. But some subjects we studied: ancient Mesopotamia (the "cradle of civilization"), ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, ancient Rome, a little bit of ancient China. The "Viking Age", European middle ages, age of discovery/exploration (Marco Polo, Columbus, Vasco Da Gama...), the French Revolution, Imperialism (how Africa was divided, among other things), the Industrial Revolution (emphasis on England and Sweden), WW1, WW2. The foundation of the UN/European Union. Also a bit of Swedish history, but surprisingly little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skibop!! 8,585 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Damn I don't remember... US History in elementary also touched on the history of the Native Americans and their tribes Middle school was US History, World History... I remember learning about Marcus Garvey and other black activists High School we had to take US and World History where we learned about world religions I don't even remember where I gained all my knowledge from tbh, I think watching The History Channel helped, and we always glazed over slavery and Holocaust was almost always talked about along with Columbus "discovering" America Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
