I don't think the current history books were written to brainwash Africans, I think they were distorted with the bias of the authors. Nepalese history books probably don't credit Sir Edmund Hillary with being the first man to climb Mt Everest. They also probably don't call it Mt. Everest.

This is probably why South African text books have been rewritten over the past 15 years.
