I’m curious as to which country it is that only teaches C++ for all programming?

And why that is, sounds very particular. I started programming in C and C++. Back then it was the knly languages I could find books for in the library and I had managed to get my hands on a Borland compiler via an older cousin, but I wouldn’t have picked it as a newcomer language today.

In Romania. There are computer science classes starting 11 years old students in every school but Pascal and C/C++ are the only options.
