americans live in a bubble ,they have no idea what other countries history is,unlike usa we in australia ,canada,new zealand,britain,etc,learn about others history,you need to get out more!.by your response you are not very well educated as your system is one of the lowest in the western world, and "hopes to go to college"obviously you are a typical result of your usa education system which is why the usa has to import the top educaters from other countries but i dont think that is working by the sound of you ,wake up to yourselves!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
