What does England teach about US history?
My family and I were watching a special the other day and it got us thinking. We know what our history book says about why the colonist left England and we know what our history says followed, but what does England teach happened?
I would really love to know the answer to this question so if there is anyone from England or someone who has studied there who could answer it, that would be great. I would also LOVE to get my hands on an English history book with this information in it if anyone knows where I could get one.
These are just some of the things I am curious about. Feel free to elaborate on things that aren't listed here even if it is something that we might not teach in our books.
What do they teach about the Revolutionary War?
How do they portray the King's part in all this?
What about the Boston Tea Party?
What do they teach about when we finally declared our independence?
How about the religion aspect of it?
And all those other things that are in our books...what do they learn happened? and what are they taught was the reason for the colonist leaving in the first place?
There are always two sides to every story and they are rarely the same, so I am just really curious as to what their side is.

I have read the history books in the UK, it is not very different. There is written that all the criminals escaped from the Uk to escape the prisin and execution. I wrote an for essaywriter.org reviews about differences in history books in different countires, the most interesting parts are in the USSR history books, it seems that everyone in the US wants to kill them and destroy their perfect society
