For as little of it as Americans tend to know, European history is usually covered pretty well in American schools, with it being the main focus of most elementary/high school level history classes and featuring the occasional jump to Asia to cover subjects like Ghengis Khan.
My question is this- do Europeans cover American history, specifically the Civil War, in the same fashion as America (at least tries) to teach its students about european history? Or is American history more of a footnote pre WW1?
