It is widely taught and included in most high school curricula around the world, but alas, the curricula is getting so expansive that peoples' natural inclination is to ignore huge chunks and segments of history, because it is too hard for non-historian types to keep that must history coherently in their minds.. People have to skim by default, and a lot of significant details tend to get lost in the process. I think the average American adult/parent would be overwhelmed if they actually had to retake American high school, even in the "worse" schools, where the curriculum is more expansive then it might seem from the outside..
