Of course, here in the states it's taught as the colonists rising up against tyranny. What do they teach in UK schools? Are the colonists considered traitors? I'm curious to know how this bit of history is taught on the other side.

It isn't.

We concetrated on more modern conflicts world war 2 and the cold war mainly.
I suppose my kids learn about the Gulf wars but they don't talk to me about school.

You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
