When we study about what has happened in the past, we always look at important figures, important events, important groups, ideas, and movements.
let me start:
When you understand history, you understand basic concepts and ideas. You will learn about cause and effect, relationships and human nature. Since history is mainly about what causes the next event or action, people can clearly understand how things are related to one another.
When you also know about history, you can understand what it really means to be in someone else’s shoes. We all live our own separate lives and choose to be affected by what we see around us. We can take action or we can remain passive. When you read about the history of various countries, you can understand the pain, the joy and more that people feel when they do something difficult or amazing. You can understand what it means to have no food, or what is means to be rich and without love. Just like reading a book, history is a big book filled with many real stories. Know you can picture what it is like to live in china during communism or what it means to be an American.
It has been said that he who controls the past controls the future. Our view of history shapes the way we view the present, and therefore it dictates what answers we offer for existing problems
Whatever we do in this life it goes till eternity, the actions taken by our ancestor brings pride,shame, disillusionment etc are the one which also shape our personal outlook towards everything that we face. Our present is result of actions of past, the action of society of past makes our present and will manifest in future society and it is continuous process:). History gives us an opportunity to look back all that happened once again, though it is unfortunate subject, just like war, truth is first casualty in historiography:)
exactly
By understanding what has happened in the past and the current situation of today, we can better understand what can happen in the future. By looking at what has happened, we can understand what we should avoid and what we should make better.
