Dude, I have college degrees. My favorite courses were actually electives like Western Civilization & the Humanities. Code of Hammurabi, Roman Empire, Egypt, Pax Romana, Domesday Book, Iraq area with city states ... Fertile Crescent... First to have uniform school curricula, irrigation. the Sumerians, Cuneiform, Epic of Gilgemash, Ottoman Empire. Popes & Anti Popes. Medieval times, Black Plague, Renaissance...Hanseatic League...& of course, Ancient Greece, Athens, their Patron Virgin Goddess & namesake... Themistocles & his diplomacy to have a naval fleet built, buying time alongside Leonidas for Athenians to flee. Arguably saving Greece & Western Civilization by expertly winning at Salamis. So much rich history... to include much more... and a Folly here & there.
