American public school education is a literal joke, but that would be by design. And when you spend your entire life, being told that you’re the best and your country is the best. You tend to not care about the fine details because you are the best and you already know that. If I remember correctly, I maybe had one or two units on The operation and founding of the government. A majority of that section was literally just the battles and the dates that they happened on. Not the why they happened or the repercussions afterwards. No deeper explanation for the why only the when. Unless you self-educated you weren’t educated.
I mean, it’s not like we have a bunch of units on the US here either, but we did at least have some class time dedicated to how out constitution differed from the US one.
