One of the surest paths to understand human nature, human ambition, human fallibility, and the certainty of change. Face backward in order to face forward.
Yeah exactly. When I started studying history as a child, I didn’t like it in particular. Later I discovered the great value it has. Now, whenever I can, I read history essays. They’re my favourite books!
Exactly nomilove! I think it would be cool to learn certain major events that have happened in world history and learn them in different countries, just to see how different teach it from a different point of view.

No! Only not history! http://www.thebeststuffintheworld.com/stuff/learning-history
Learning from our past times, to make our present times better…. If we know our mistakes, perhaps we will not repeat them.

History is extremely important, afterall it’s what got where we are today. And if we don’t learn from it, we are destined to repeat it.
And we usually do. :(
Yeah, but I trust a majority of people in the world have become more ‘conscious’...
Hisory is important to learn true but everyone learns it differently because history is always based on the point of view of the person teaching it!
Exactly. That’s why it’s called “his” story. ;)
History shows us also to be brave, grateful, modest, lucky, dependent and a more things like this.

I don't like to study about the history of my own country. It's really boring…

To be honest I strongly prefer the New Testament, if I have to choose…..
