Was there even a WWII? To hear my friends and my ex tell it, they only learn Japanese history up to the Russo-Japanese War in school, anyway.

Design? My dear man, you must be polite enough to allow for coincidences. (And let's be fair--there were plenty of social studies teachers in our day who found a way to run out of time before the Vietnam War would have taken center stage in the lessons.)
