Oh, that was easy. A brutally abridged version of "Candide" was taught not as a satire but as fact in the Capitol.

""What! Have you no monks to teach, to dispute, to govern, to intrigue and to burn people who do not agree with them?"

That was a direct quote from Chapter 18. Effie Trinket had recited it to stern applause at her sixth-form pageant.
