Do any other countries make students do this?

When I was in Turkish school we used to sing the istiklal marşı to the decapitated head of Ataturk like he was a god. A god who secularized the country. I was surrounded by some of the most miliyetci fascists I'd ever met in that school. I stopped going because of the nationalism, and my turkish got worse.
My ex is an Italian who grew up in Germany, and she went to an Italian school where they had a similar kind of fascism going on. She stayed, but not her brothers. Her Italian is fantastic.
Yeah standing in the middle of a whole school shouting "How happy for whoever can say 'I am turkish'" as a foreigner was a mixed bag of feelings even though the people typically where kemalist
that's the thing, the school had a large kemalist majority, but they stayed quiet and let the fascists push them around and indoctrinate their kids
