Mention the imporatance of past .Explain (5 points)

Dear student,
The study of history is important because it can tell us how we evolved. It can tell us what decisons worked in particular situations in the past and what didn't. This can be useful when taking decisions today in similar situations. We can also take inspirations from certain events to motivate us. For example, The Battle of Thermopylae, The Battle of Longewala, The Battle of Saragarhi. These events tell us how a few stood against many. They can serve as inspirations for people who find themselves outnumbered by their opponents (be it anywhere). Also studying why Empires collapsed may give us insights into how to efficiently run our countries. If the Germans had taken lessons from history, then during World War 2, they wouldn't have fought in Russia during the winter, like Napoleon did.

The past allows the people of the present and the future to learn without having to endure. We can see how others coped, we can see that others survived hard times. The past gives us courage and it protects us.
Thus, the main reason behind why we should study History is to ensure that we don't repeat the same mistakes as our forefathers when History repeats itself.

Regards
