What is History

does it matter? Can I accept whatever happens in another part of the world into my

personal history, or just in the worlds history? What parts of history are most important?

Who decides? What a question! The word history has many attached meanings to it, and

the result is that the definition for history depends on who it is you are asking. But What

is it? Dictionary.com states that, “history is a narrative of events; a story.” Everyone has

stories. it goes without saying then that everyone has history. But what about looking at

the world in a broader aspect. I think we could look at humans, in whole, and see that we

all have a history; a social history. Also, what students mostly study in textbooks, and in

tough one, but also that we as American were influenced by the disgusting, demanding

powers of Hitler. History books retell what happened, politically and often

socially, so we can understand where we come from and where we are headed. Anything someone can think of that has happened; their retelling of it

becomes history. These words may help understand what went on in the past, but they can not

be exact. What he and she have done to remain. It starts somewhere in the middle of

nothing. My

friend who had the, “split up,” can now go over all the history he has with his girl and

figure out what it was the lead to the break up.
