History, as a study of the past, is torn asunder by various
nations and groups. The old saying that history is written by the

victors is not far from the truth. The relative history that is taught
for populist purposes is the reason why the whole is fragmented.

History is among the elements that divide people and poison

society. It has contributed for the discovery and memory of the
wise people who wanted to help humanity to have a better life.

These people should not be forgotten, but history as a science

needs to be set aside.

It is said that a nation is a large body of people, united by history

and culture that are different from those of other nations. If so,
what nationality were Adam and Eve? Are we not their

descendants? If this thesis is true, then we are all cousins,

brothers and sisters. It follows that, historically, all the people in
the world have the same root. This poses the question:

Are the great figures of various nations older than Adam and
Eve?

History is a study of past events and it has not contributed for the
progress of the society. It only misguided entire nations and

caused wars. History can only serve as a source of examples

what not to think or do.
