You don't. You might. It all depends on what country you live in while going to school. If you are borrn and raised in China, you learn about Chinese history first. Only at more advanced school levels would you learn about any European history. United States schools sometimes teach some European history because some events in Europe had a major impace on life in the U.S.

Why should you study African history?

African culture (just as well as any culture) and the country along with other countries is essential to study because you learn so much about not only its history, but your history. It does not matter what race you are, your ancestors most likely "played a part", so to say, in this particular area of history. It's just like the African slave trade and Middle Passage. Not only are they interesting topics to know, but teach you some part (most likely) of your history. Any history, good or bad, is wonderful to know.


What is history modern history?

There are three schools of thought concerning this: One is that modern history is from 1950 onward. Another is that modern history is from 1899 onward The final one is that modern history doesn't exist as something that is modern cannot exist in the past. Modern history is the considered the time after the "middle ages", beginning around 1500. Modern history is comprised of two eras, early modern through about 1800 and late modern which is followed by contemporary history. Most of this terminology is in reference to European and American history and their relationship with other continents. Modern History is only part of history. Modern history is from 1850 onward in some ways.

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.
