Tangential: Recently, I was talking with a friend of how in Colombia, schools don’t teach much of recent events of Colombian history (Colombia has been in a pseudo-civil war for almost 80 years), but we learn A LOT about WWII, Vietnam war, Korean war, cold war, etc.
Given that the Goverment has done extremely nasty things in these decades, I’m somewhat convinced this is intentional.

I’m so confused
We don’t learn much about recent events of Colombian history, but a lot of international history.
