Japan had already started expanding by then and they were sending spies to the US. Also the Japanese had a plane called the "Betty bomber" which is a twin engine bomber, that is a copycat of Earharts plane. There's a theory that the Japs wanted her plane.

Hm

I just want to know why all that information is just coming out now? Why was it hidden?

Who knows

I though AD meant “after death” referring to Jesus’ death

That's a simple way of remembering it

I noticed that student dont like History or know almost nothing about is because its barely taught in elementary and if it though, then its European history like wtf.

I still remember when my schools taught Texas history, and ended it shortly after i got into Junior High

But now they include "mexico" history as part of US history

To for what i can guess, "fill in for rhe Texas history" they removed from the curriculum

How does Mexican history have anything to do with US history?

i have no idea

A little bit, such as the US and Mexico war

1846

well yeah that, but overall aside from a few states it really doesnt play a massive part in US's history

I presume its taught in such a way that somehow everything averse to happen to Mexico

Is somehow a fault of the US

Like the arrival of the Spanish.. sure brutal, flu and chicken pox

Probably

But what really did the aztecs in was the fact that they were so brutal to smaller tribes

yeah, and that states like Cali. Texas, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico were land stolen from Mexico is what i can imagine being taught nowdays in grade schools

They joined the Spanish and helped them out plenty

hell from what iv talked with people around my age, alot of them think that Texas was land stolen from Mexico by US imperialism

Mexicans did not inhabit the land that far north🤦‍♂️

Bruh

tho those people were from outa state and dont know anything about Texas history

they dont even know it were the French that were the first Euro's to discovered it, then the Spaniards came across an abandoned french fort some 20 years later when they first began exploring that region

Just glad the Spanish navy from those days is where it belongs

At the bottom of the ocean😆

lol\

They were a danger to my tiny island 😄

To add insult to injury the RM took and held Gibraltar ahhh

nice

you know i find it funny how the French with La Salle basically just discovered some of the worst places in the US imaginable all because he wanted to take a joy ride down the Mississippi in his explorers ship

The French work in mysterious ways

Yeah lol

Its even funnier when you find out he wanted to do that again

This time going up river on the mississippi instesd of going down jt

> hell from what iv talked with people around my age, a lot of them think that Texas was land stolen from Mexico by US imperialism
@Zilla who cares if we "stole" it or not, if Mexico couldn't take it back back then, that's their problem, not ours

exactly

@Tripolic X Oh yeah, I remember in 4th grade D-Day was just a paragraph, and there was nothing about the Pacific theater in WWII, except the nuking of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
