In France this really depends, today, on the teacher. When I was a kid in the 80s colonization was very lightly mentioned, mostly in the vontext of punitive comonies quch as Guyana. Otherwise these territories were shown to children in mainland France as normal departments. Today it is different. Colonies are part of the cirriculum but teachers have more leeway in appproching the topic. One of my children had the "we are genocide makers" version, when the other one was "colonization was a blessing for them" (I am overdrawing the picture)
