Because that is how it is taught in most of our public schools. It's a rare teacher that teaches it properly. Most of the teachers who could teach it properly are now either dead or retired.
My high school history teachers had been working since the 1950s, back when "social studies" was divided into things called "history" and "civics."
This is why they've been getting it wrong since the mid-1960s.
