I can understand why you don't want to know about Canadian history. After all, no one likes to read about someone burning their capital.
I also don't remember who won any of the bronze medals in the last Olympics, who came in third in the last election, and the third guy to make a transatlantic flight... and nobody else does either... because if you aren't first, you don't matter.

As far as the War of 1812 was concerned, that's American history too... and it was Brits who burned the capital.
