    I know, I live in England. But it's still a generalisation. Some people teach themselves.

The only difference was that the Americans had gained independence and they were no longer part of the British Empire, hence why it won't be British vs. British.
    Oh Yeah.... Thats right..
    I stand corrected, Im sorry.
    Connor`s such a jerk that he builds an Inn for 2 travelers he`s such a jerk that he helps a man being mugged, he`s such a jerk that he sacrifices his revenge for the Colonists` freedom, he`s such a jerk that he saved entire American cities in the east coast from Templars, he`s such a jerk that he grants a dying Biddle his wish of not taking the Randolph as a prize, He`s such a jerk that he saves a woman from her harassing husband, he`s such a jerk that he saves a foreigner from bullies, he`s such a jerk that he liberates the entire cities of Boston and NY, he`s such a jerk that he provides 2 farmers with a new farm, he`s such a jerk that he funds a house of worship that is not of his belief, he`s such a jerk that he saves Prudence from a bear,

    he`s such a jerk that he helps Norris with his love life, he`s such a jerk that he risked his life bringing Achilles his painting and old robes, he`s such a jerk that he travels to Boston and New York simply to bring materials for the homesteaders, he`s such a jerk that he refuses to call the homesteaders his townsfolk, preferring to instead call them his friends, he`s such a jerk that he`s the first protagonist to offer an Assassin-Templar alliance, he`s such a Jerk he built an entire town for colonists and gave them new lives. He`s such a Jerk that he`s happy for the Colonists when they win their freedom, he`s such a jerk that he gives Lee a chance for one last drink, he`s such a Jerk that he stops Putnam from kicking Hickey after his death, teaching us all that no matter how low a human being sinks, "still a man"....MAN, Connor is SUCH a selfish jerk

    It is a generalisation.. But one which is basically very true..

    One based on the UKs current history ciriculum - and past ones.

    Its not taught in great detail in UK schools, while some may go on to further education, and choose it, it's not something that's taught in school - some may study it as a hobby, but its not common knowledge..

    however in America, it's part of the normal teaching programme - as far as I am aware..

    So, its entirly possible that not many people, outside of the US will be familiar with the people, places and events in ACIII, so it's important to help educate, rather than just assume people know..

    US players may, but we are an international forum, so we need to cover the bases.

    Yeah, the American history is not taught in great detail in Europe in general. And I assume the Americans don't know so much about the history of particular European nations as we do here in Europe. That's just the way it is. Which makes me wonder how much they knew or at least suspected about the Italian Renaissance before AC2 came out...

    but an american once said he never learned about ancient Greece and the Roman empire in school, its so stupid you get so less history in school, i only have 2 houers a week, it would be much better if EVERYONE had 5 houers history and learn about all the continents in all time periods instead of teaching usseless things like music and faith.

    Im sorry, but I do not like you calling Music and faith useless..
    Had you implied your point through as your opinion, I would not have any problem with your post..
    Music and faith are equally as important as history, IN MY HONEST OPINION..
