Question

Why world war is not important in the history syllabus of 10std????

Answer 1

Personalities: WW-II involved a lot more interesting personalities - Hitler, Stalin, Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Hirohito, Eisenhower, Marshall, MacArthur, Rommel, Patton, Montgomery and Mussolini. WW-I personalities were all comparatively insipid. Even the Americans don't want to remember Woodrow Wilson any more. Personalities always make a story stick stronger. WW-I is often an impersonal story - a bunch of colonial empires fighting among each other. There is no clear way to pick good from the bad. WW-II far more drenching and personal as it was a story of human struggle throughout.
