Germany had WWII
It is a ridiculous claim to say that Germany downplays its nazi past. Not a single topic in school is covered more comprehensively, in almost every possible subject -- Politics and History (duh), German (regarding related literature), English (the British view), French (France's view), Music and Art (how artists were treated / how they tried to handle it), Religion (suppression of Christianity, Judaism and other religions), etc.

Really, if anything, the subject is exaggerated. Downplayed it is not.
