It’s all good! It’s true that in the US, depending on where you are, you’re probably going to be taught history differently. I didn’t grow up in Georgia though, and just moved here for College.
If I remember correctly, high school, which I took in Texas, largely focused on World History, US Government, and Economics, with a little bit of US History scattered through out as needed. i think the bulk of my civil war education was in Middle School, which I started in Colorado, then moved to Texas in the middle of That. History classes at that age tend to focus on the history of whatever state/region you’re in, I think. So I know a lot about both Colorado and Texas history and their roles in the civil war (or lack there of).
actually, I am a liar, because as I type this, I realize 9th grade must have focused on US History, including the Civil War. Again, being in Texas at the time, it was still a lot of focus on Texas’s role, but we also learned about slavery and the politics of the whole thing, and there was absolutely no bias towards the confederate side that I can remember.
i am curious too though, if that’s different for my followers that grew up in schools in the deep south, where I am now—you definitely still see pockets of people that still believe in the confederacy and all of that, which is sort of insane.
