Is anything but Polish history taught in Polish schools?

And often they have sooo much to say, if you catch my drift :)

hey, the french were way nicer then the english in dealing with the injuns. americans were terrible too. canadians were pus$ycats in comparison. you actually still have lots of indians.. not so much here and of course they got pushed out to wastelands. cherokees seems to have faired the best.

both used and abused them when they saw fit...there is a reason why the natives fled to the WEST of Canada from the US in the 19th century.....

I do,and indeed,do :)

I don't know about Polish schooling but in my UK school we were taught about the two World Wars for most of it and that was classed as British History and also World History. There was very little else taught and I have learned more history by reading it for myself since leaving school.

Our Natives are living on reserves not fit for animals. As time goes on, their land gets smaller and smaller and their water gets infected with E.Coli, Canadian police barge in with weapons etc... Not exactly a great living.


They were both equally bad, IMO.
Natives were seen as 'savages' by both nations and were treated as such. It's an ugly history that Canada loves to cover up in history class.

Now could you feckingly enlighten me about any Chinese company (not necessary army) which actively fought in Viet Nam-American War?


Ahem, and there and in the rest of British empire his kinky brown face was welcomed with such terrific racism that so thoroughly pissed him up...(still Brits of 1890s don't count)

Typical irony, is it not? Certainly alongside India with its thousand years of civilisation, former colonies of Bangladesh and Nepal could do just as well in modern world with the left-over infarstructure of the Brit empire. Though they would surely do much better if those sods aren't that addicted to cricket...


Then for the holy Catholicism's sake, just roar until your trachea burst. Welcome to modern time!

Errr...I dunno........name some Chinese companies of the 1960's.

Alright I concede your Maoist intellect, batallion then? (feck silly English word,)

My money would be on China. They hold over $3 Trillion in foreign reserves. The economy (and army) is growing. There are still tons of poor people, especially in rural areas but the government itself is becoming very powerful.

Yes,they were the main stay of the RF/PF and operation Pheonix assasins...oops,wrong side,you meant AGAINST the americans....mind you,there was a company of local force VC in the Cholon distrect of Saigon during Tet '68....so,yes,Chinese pretty much mixed up,but,victory belongs to the peoples of Vietnam,not to the Chinese.

mali,not to bring it back to us evil brits again(seriously,I dont come here to talk about this crap!!) but,Im rather talking about the 2 main econamies being India and China,china has never fully been anyones colony.....not to mention being in east,not central asia...
anyway,can we get back to the Polish stuff please?????

Fifth Army, 20th Batallion - prove me wrong !

If you can let me know of a website where the Chinese administration have published details of their armies activities in the Second Indochina War I would be very grateful.


Feck is a silly word, even when used in the correct context.

Edit - forgot to mention the Paracel Islands which the Chinese nicked from the Vietnamese in 1974.

past tense....none of you evil brits had anything to do with evil brit history ;)
*pet peeve -> people in contemporary times acting as if they had anything to do with the way that their nation was shaped*


I never went to Polish school :(


Didn't Cambodia come in and 'help', in order to make the Vietnamese feel indebted?

Cambodia,nah,they just got dumped on by all sides,even their own...btw,the only reason pol pots evil regime fell was because unified Vietnam kicked some khmer rouge butt.

You're right. I was thinking the other way around....which has been happening too often lately lol

Sorry that was the Sixth Army, 21th Batallion which composed exclusively of engineers (half of them died peacefully while on a brotherly mission to mend some Stone-Age Farms during the Chrismas Bombing 1972!)

I can do that if you, as a thoughful reciprocation, promise to give me an official Chinese website dealling with the 3rd Indochina War!

Eh, from our heavily cornered southern brothers.!

must be the weather...I hear they have weather in Poland too...maybe it has an influence on the Polish education system
(did you see that,saved it from random chat..:) )


lmao......maybe we are straying into "obscure" territory here for most westerners though Tran?

I thought 3rd world countries didn't have weather? ;)

Polish history is taught in the Polish school system at some point. The end.

I wonder what they teach in American schools and universities, too, nowadays...most Americans have no real knowledge of history, geography, let alone many classic writers...everything is so oriented to computers and the internet, which has it's pluses and minuses...I would say that one required reading book in both history/literature should be George Orwell's 1984...when I went to high school in Philadelphia USA it was required reading....as far as Polish education, I can't speak on it.

Im kinda nervous about the state of britains education these days too joe,I think its an international phenomiwottsit, kids are not being educated for the sake of knowladge but to pass certain exams and make the schools/education boards look good/get next years funding bonus....shamefull really.

Now, on this point...in America, the major universities have basically been changed into 'trade schools', where the most compliant students are trained to work for various multi-national corporations...now, I am all in favor of 'trade' or 'vocational' schools, as they will prepare a student for specific skilled job in the real world...however, the universities charge now about $40000-50000 a year for this type of education...by the time the student graduates, he will owe maybe $50-75000 in student loans...plus, forget studying the humanities in this situation.
