Important Historical Events which should be part of your national history curriculum.
I've always been an advocate of a great historical curriculum, I find the one we have here in the U.K to be extremely limited. Anyway this debate is just to see how other people feel about the national curriculums in their countries and how they would change them.
While this debate is technically seeking opinions, people are allowed to disagree (with a certain degree of respect) with your argument. I'm not going to have people claim that just because it is their opinion nobody can legitimately dispute them.
Anyway, an example of the preferred argument structure will be posted by myself below.

My country:United Kingdom Historical Event: The Glorious Revolution. Reasons why: Not only does the Glorious Revolution reveal why Britain had such close relationships with the Dutch for such a long time, but it also led to the Constitutional Monarchy that is our form of Government today. Historical Event: The British Empire (Rise and Fall). Reasons why: The only part of the British Empire which was taught in Secondary School was the Slave Trade and yet the British Empire was the greatest factor in the production of the modern world, to not learn about it would mean that one could never truly understand geopolitics. |
