As for being from South Africa I think we get educated largely on our geographic location. There's a thread on here somewhere discussing what the rest of the world is taught about the American Revolution. Turns out not much. At the same time I'm the product of the US public education system. I don't know jack about the history of most other countries. If you asked me any question regarding South African politics my only answer would likely be Nelson Mandela.
