    Are today’s history books accurate? History has been used for ages to fuel the country’s propaganda and are rarely if ever critical to some shameful moments of one’s history.

    There are some exceptions but they are rather rare I would say.

      History has always been written by the victors. Next time there might not be anyone alive to write it tho.
