1. People may sometimes ask is history important? I beleive it is because theres no going back. Our history is full of many interesting events and it makes me think, if the littlest thing happened differently our whole world would be diffferent. Im pretty sure that any information about the past can help you in the future.
2. Have you ever heard the saying, "History is the lie commonly agreed upon." When Voltaire said this he is pretty much saying how history is never really the truth. Ask yourself, how does history get around? Think about it, what if a war happened who lives to tell the story? The winner of course, so do you honestly think the storys going to be exactly what happened? No. There going to say whatever they have to say to make themselves look best. Why, because they can do it without anyone saying different. And for this reason history is most the time not fully correct.
