But you can't ask an average American about (European) history, especially about a very particular event therein that basically only and expert on this era would know... I have had hilarious experiences with that even at Harvard, and I would have expected my students to be a bit smarter than the average... But on the contrary you can't ask a European about the American Civil War either (though even that seemed to be quite an unkown variable here...).
