So what do you think an adult brought up and living in the UK should know about history? I don't mean in-depth knowledge, but just very basic knowledge.
I think adults should all know about -
- Both world wars and a bit of understanding about how many countries were involved
- Transatlantic slave trade
- Reformation
- Existence of cold war
- Holocaust, Hitler and Nazi party
- Partition in India
- English Civil War
- Roman Empire and that it included England and parts of Wales
- Act of Union
- Troubles in Northern Ireland
- Suffragettes
- Feudalism
- Black Death
