At the end of World War I, Germans could hardly recognize their country. Up to 3 million Germans, including 15 percent of its men, had been killed. Germany had been forced to become a republic instead of a monarchy, and its citizens were humiliated by their nation's bitter loss.

<h2><em>Herodotus views history as a source of moral lessons, with conflicts and wars as misfortune. Herodotus, preferred moral lessons and drawing conclusions over fact, making him similar to other popular historians of the time. Thucydides uses factual reports of political and military events, based on eye-witness accounts. Thucydides' view of only factual based reports, was uncommon for the time, neither Thucydides or Herodotus, cited sources.</em></h2>
