| In history i learned about the discovering of America and the colonization the 2 continents and how they used the continents, for example the plantation and mines with slaves from Africa. This is all i've learned about American history. |

| I learned that the native americans discovered america about 35 000 years ago, then vikings were vandalising somewhere in the 10th and 11th century there and that Christopher Columbus is a phony who killed most of the natives and took their treasures. |

we were informed that "americans" is no longer the correct term. rather, we are to call you "burger eating invasion monkeys".

Not much, we only talk about real important empires that actually did good things for the world.

^
the only involvement like proper involvment was the us in ww2.
Germany was pushing, very fast, it had moved all its soldiers from Russia to Germany after Russia's new Soviet Union and its withdrawal from the war. But it was pushing TOO fast, and with the British Blockade pushing in, they suddenly went into starve mode, I mean, the German citizens were already starving, just the soldiers not as much. Then the US came in and pretended to be like the hero. |

| Well, we learned about their involvement in the two World Wars in a quite neutral viewpoint. We are also doing a unit about the USA which entails things such as McCarthyism and the Red Scare, the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War. |

During my short time in Ukraine(I'm Russo-Ukrainian, remember?) I learned that was born out of Englands failure of controlling its citizens, that America is constantly industrious who most likely care more about it success in it GDP, and they fought in WW2 and fought the Japanese.
Sounds more like propaganda, right?

If you walked along the streets of America, you wouldn't just see fat people. Those kinds of people are a very small percent of our population, trust me. |

| MrSmenry is right. The main reason we have that stereotype is because of McDonalds, which I don`t even like that much. |
