I don't mind the American Civil War, but I traditionally prefer world history over American history.

Ever since I've done history, I've always wanted to do American history, however after the civil war I'm not too sure if I want to do anymore.

Hm. I suppose it's a matter of personal preference. I never found American history compelling or interesting.

I always liked the gold rush, But ever since learning about WW2, It's like 'what rush?'.

I much prefered European history all around, and I've come to appreciate Asian history, which they seldom taught in public schools.

Exactly, but you live in the country. Unlike me in my prison colony, thank you very much Britain.

Same thing here. I was learning all that gold rush shit in primary and then you get to high school and do WW1 & 2 and it's like "Oh yeah, we did have a gold rush".

I'm currently writing an essay regarding European dominance from the 15th century to 1914.

European dominance in Europe or globally?

Globally. Colonialism and all. ✅

Nice.

I am studying the Cold War next year.

We've studied a bit of it, but mostly briefly.

As far as movies go, The Sum of all fears really did a good job of explaining and reinacting the cold war.

This was my college history professor's biggest spiel. He said you could trace back most if not all of the world's present day ills to colonialism.

I'm doing History and law at Edin and we are currently going through the tedium of Scottish Laws, bit of the good old Roman Republican Lawful Systems in politics!
