Well, normally kids get their history from the history class. That's not really history, but patriotic indoctrination. I'll give you an example from the country I was born in (Romania). My Dad was a kid during WW2; he asked a soldier returning from war, did you kill anyone? The guy answered that he killed more people than he had hairs on his head. How could that be? It's impossible to know now, my Dad died a few years ago, and that guy probably many decades prior. But it's likely the guy didn't lie. I think he probably took part in the 1941 Odessa massacre [1]. An odious even where Romanian soldiers murdered tens of thousands of people, mainly Jews. Care to guess if I learned about this even in my school history classes? Well, maybe Romania has a particularly shameful history, and other nations don't have such events to report to their school kids. Well, here's [2] a list of historical massacres. I wonder if: - Russian kids learn about the 1794 massacre of Warsaw, where Russian soldiers killed 20000 Polish people - Turkish kids learn about the 50000 Greek people murdered in 1822 by Ottoman soldiers - or if Greek kids learn about the 3000 Turkish people murdered by Greek people one year before, in 1821 You can go on and on. Bottom line, chances are history learned from Europa Universalis is probably more unbiased than what you learn in your history class.
