Answer 2

Students should study history because of the importance history has in the affect of each and everyone of our lives. For example:

1) Learning from history, we can see the problems everyone faced, the way they overcame it (by what techniques) and finally how the answer evolved through the generations. From there, we can see how we should react the best way as possible.
- For example, we can learn from World War I and World War II, that being easier in peace terms may greatly affect the outcome of the next few years, as during WWI, because of the economic collapse and the large amount of reparation fee Germany had to pay, it made them angry, and with Hitler as their leader, start WWII, another deadly war.
2) History tends to repeat itself, and we should always study it, as the whatever actions and choices we choose now will change the results that would happen in the future.
3) History allows us to see how our communities, beliefs, and countries evolved throughout the years, and what events had helped shape each and every one of us (such as The Great Enlightenment). It gives us insight on how the world evolves, and what advancements we were able to get.
4) We should study history, because it is part of our past. If certain events had not happened, we might not even be where we were. For example, a Jewish might not have descendents living in the US if there was no Holocaust and "the Last Solution", which was put into law by Hitler during the 1940s.
