History: On learning from and writing history

Diese Gruppe ist offiziell eingeschlafen. Sowas passiert. Wenn du diese Gruppe wiederbeleben oder eine neue Gruppe zum gleichen Thema gründen willst, sieh dir diese Seite an.

Each written history has its own viewpoint, but which is correct and why?

Is it the big men that make the big movements of history or the other way around?

Are those who don't learn from history really condemned to repeat it?

Lots of questions but are there answers?

Discussions should be conducted without fondness for dispute or desire for victory -Ben Franklin
