In Australia, my 9th grade history teacher was a German on teacher exchange. We spent the entire year studying the rise of Nazism.
That's how important they think knowledge of the subject is. Best history teacher I ever had.
Edit: To be clear on a couple of points... We mainly studied the rise of Nazism and the Holocaust. The actual war, not so much.
And I never said Australia's historical conscience was clear. I was merely relaying my perspective on Germany's ability to confront its past openly and honesty. Mercy.

Shy away from atrocities?
They still celebrate the confederacy in the south. Literally built statues to pro-slavery war heroes and passed laws to prevent their removal.

I like it when people admit to their dark pasts because it means that they are truly trying to become a better person.
