Well , for one , the fact that I ' ve visited various countries and have relatives all over the world . And the fact that I realize that different parts of history are emphasized for different types of people . How come Americans don ' t usually learn about the Partition ? Because it ' s not that important to their personal history , nor did it effect them as much as it did Asia . And the fact that I realize that class privilege is a thing not everyone in the world can afford to go to school and when a lot of people around the world go to school , they aren ' t taught world history to the same extent that a lot of Westerners are , due to lack of funds , lack of proper available books , lack of teachers to teach these things , and so on . So , your anecdotal evidence is eligible for this discussion buy mine isn ' t ? Okay . I see I ' m arguing with a rational person .
