The problem is that compromising on what's to be included in a textbook will sacrifce some very important history. Yes it skips the vast majority of the Americas but its a full European picture. I'd rather have a full course in history for Europe, America, and the Middle East as standard, but if we can't have that ideal I'll take the full European history and sorry minorities. Maybe one day people will value history as a subject.
