Most teenagers don't want to learn history. And you can't make them (unless you are a Nazi).


I have a deep interest in European politics during the late 15th century, with the rise of Spain, France, English civil wars, Poland/Lithinua, etc etc.

World War 2 is also a fascinating topic for me.


However, most people simply aren't interested. And thats why schools don't teach it; very few people are interested in history (plus my interest in history lies from learning from mistakes).


Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you.
