FWIW my middle school history classroom 20 years ago (gasp when did that happen) probably had more maps hanging on the walls than the geography classroom. We had maps for every historical period we learned about. It was pretty neat.
It still took me well into my 20’s to realize that history happens in parallel and all those ancient civilizations were just countries existing next to each other. They didn’t come one after another in a steady succession or anything like that.
Do kids these days not get maps and stories anymore?
