help fast! i have a history assignment and i have to finish this

History is...very long. (Just kidding.)

History is the reflected study of past human civilizations. - JSfK

History is...
..."A usually chronological record of events, as of the life or development of a people or institution, often including an explanation of or commentary on those events." (1)
 
History is life's past events that teaches us a lot about ourselves. In history, we can learn a lot about human nature as we study the actions and decisions of those before us. We can also figure out from history what works and doesn't work for society. Also, since history tends to repeat itself, studying the past is in someway studying the future as well. Therefore, not only does the subject tell us who we are as a people, it also teaches us how to prepare for the generations to come.

Good Luck!
