How many of you were taught that the 'North's invasion of the South' (1950) and not the 'Jeju Island massacre' (1948), was the start of the Korean War? (lemmygrad.ml)

Lmao as if german schools teach anything besides the nazi period in germany (in my experience at least). Other countries are only mentioned when they were invaded by germany and not beyond that tbh

We had the Korean war as part of a short segment about the cold war but it was really propagandistic.
