300 words to prove the awesomeness of History




Ask any student who has gotten a grudge  against  history and the study of it, why he/she does not like the course and the response is usually "it is boring!' or 'it has no relevance whatsoever"

No, mate, those views are wrong, The last time i checked, history is one of the most interesting courses out there and yes it is as relevant as washington DC is to America. Let me take you into the world of the awesomeness of history.

In history, students basically learn about past events to understsnd, the happenings  of the contemporary time, it is very important for you to know that the things we do and see today, the structures thar we use today are all products of history, even the attitude and culture of our people were determined by history, and you know what? History is like life, it doesn't have an ending time, because our activities today are the histories of tomorrow.
Several interesting and important events have happened in the past that if not for history would have been lost, now we have the opportunity to relive the battle of hasting experiences, the world wars, the middle age, Slave trade and Colonization era through the use of historical data (this is more  interesting if you have an active imagination, 4D cinema doesn't compare to it)

History is often regarded as the mother of disciplines because it contributes to all aspects of human life. It gives us the chance to view the lifestyle of  great men like Alexander the great, Mansa Musa etc.from different angles, It makes us know that at one point in time,  big empires like Sparta, Greek, Roman had risen, conquered lands and fallen and that Afro had once been the craze of the youth.I love history, don't you now?
