History is about your own opinion and using reliable evidence to support your argument. Have you ever considered that the majority of the history that you read and study has been written by the victors? Do you always believe everything you read? History is important as we learn how to evaluate and analyse the evidence effectively.
Furthermore, the information studied will open your eyes to the world that you live in and make you think about some of the most crucial events of the past 500 years. You will investigate British and European History in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, including the rise and consolidation of communism in Russia and also how and why the British Empire became the premier power in the world.
