Nobody calls your smoldering beaner wasteland "America". Everything south of the rio grande is just Mexshitco in the minds of foreigners.

They have to teach boring Amerikkkan "history" or they get fired

Their Civil War is legitimately one of the most kino conflicts between Napoleon and WWI though, I have to give them that.

19th century US history is pure kino

It is full of titanic characters, surprising heroes and shocking villains, and the writing from that period is incredible compard to the present.

Gore Vidal got me into it.

America is the US & Canada. Anything south is irrelevant.

What the fuck are you talking about you mouthbreathing mong? Discovering a whole continent and expanding across it in a relentless conquest with numerous factions in play is somehow boring to you? As compared to what?

native history (mostly archaeology) across the Americas is actually comfy kino but the type of shit eating retards dumb enough to self radicalize via ms paint memes will inherently recoil and deny themselves some really interesting subject material

as for actual US history its actually super fucking interesting pre-revolution, lots of interesting colonial experiments with neat fusions of cultures and interactions with the Old World, which was still relatively difficult and timely. 15-1600s Americas are easily some of the most interesting times in world history

Yeah the civil war is kino and the thing in American history that rose to a classical drama. Some say that it was our real national revolution in which the United States became a singular thing: "the" United States. Produced some kino art as well like the whole climax of Glory after Col. Shaw is shockingly gunned down in front of his men and the Harlem Boys Choir kicks in:
https://youtu.be/Fz3sZiVAO0k

>Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

>Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

>But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

>Abraham Lincoln
>November 19, 1863

Early settlements and everything up to the revolution and all of the religious shitflinging is really interesting. Everything from the revolution to the Civil War is pure kino because it's all one long narrative about rich aristocrats with a fetish for Republican Rome repeating some of the exact same mistakes in parallel, becoming masters of a continent and then watching it all fall apart. Westward expansion and industrialization are the exact opposite of boring. I will admit things get boring after the 1920s though.
