> The Brits don't think much of the war at all. I've never studied history, and especially have never studied it abroad, but I think I've just always assumed that nations who've lost wars don't generally spend a lot of time educating their students about them. I'm sure there are exceptions to this - World Wars 1 and 2 seem too big to go missing from literature, for example, and perhaps this is my naive, too-literal interpretation of "history is written by the victors," but I'd just always expect losses to either be minimized, or be taught exclusively to vilify a persistent enemy.
