Why do you think Europe dominates the history regular taught in school?

Because Europeans, wrote down historical acts. , and also explored the world. The Amer-inds and Africans had not formed any form of writing , or recording. The Asiatics (Indians and Chinese etc) had a form or recording/ writing, but did not explore the world to pass on methods of recording. The hieroglyphs of Ancient Egypt and Sumeria , can be thought of as the earliest form of writing. This was improved on by the Classical Greeks, who effectively gave us the modern alphabet, used by the Roman Empire. Through all of this history was being recorded, by Europeans, (Egyptian, Greek, Romans). Oh!!! Don't forget Moses and his two tablets of stone, (the 10 Commandments of God), they have lasted since the Egyptians. It is the very fact that historical acts have been recorded that enables history to be taught in school today.

Why don't we learn about African history in school?

It depends on where your school is located. If your school is in Africa, then you'd be taught African history. If your school is in the United States, you're taught U.S. history. Possibly, later, you are taught European history because things that happened in Europe had the greatest effect on the United States. Because there is a finite amount of time to teach history, every country teaches local history first and non-local history only if there is time and money available. African history is usually a specialized study area limited to history scholars or persons who have direct reason to be economically interested in Africa. Not much of Arica's history has had a direct or major impact on U.S. history, other than the very major events relative to the slavery periods. But studying such history has very little attraction for most students ... unless, you happen to be of Afrcan heritage.
