Poland - borscht and poverty. wait… Maybe it’s Ukraine? or Belarus?
Sweden - vikings? wait… Maybe it’s Norway? or Denmark?
Germany - Fascists? wait… Maybe it’s Italy? or Hungary?
France - bread? wait… Maybe it’s Netherlands? or Germany?
Yes, it’s easy to trivialize something you know nothing about. Now maybe it’s not interesting to you, but to the horror of history YouTubers- everywhere has history, and the history of some random inbred monarchs isn’t exactly relevant or interesting to everyone.

I’d say pierogi is more synonymous with Poland. Also it’s economy is one of the greatest successes of a post Warsaw nation. It out performs the former East Germany in several metrics.
Sweden - vikings? wait… Maybe it’s Norway? or Denmark?
All three produced Vikings. Though the ones that harassed England were mostly Danish Vikings with some arriving from Norway and Sweden later on.
Germany - Fascists? wait… Maybe it’s Italy? or Hungary?
Germany and Italy both had fascism. Italy invented it during WWI.
France - bread? wait… Maybe it’s Netherlands? or Germany?
And Baguettes and croissants and frig legs! Germany does have some…interesting bread varieties.

European history is a lot more than just some inbred monarchs. The language you speak, the political system you use all came from Europe. Your insults come across like a teenager ranting at his parents that he’s smarter than them.

If you’re talking about the US, a constitutional bicameral presidential republic, with three branches and a judiciary of your peers, was first done in the US. In fact most modern constitutions are inspired by the American constitution.

More countries have used the Canadian constitution than the US as their framework.
Yes, amazingly, literally everything is inspired and influenced by things in the past, since the US founders were influenced largely by European cultures they were influenced by Europe. But of course, all those European cultures were even more significantly influenced by Levant cultures. Why learn European history that was just savages a few thousand years ago when you could learn Levant cultures?
