I like history, always been part of my interests to know about the past as it will unfold something about me. Yeah WORLD WAR II is a very interesting topic to learn in the History as it also helps the Philippines to be granted with democracy.

I am a complete history buff and love studying many time periods. I've been particularly interested in World War II lately and am trying to keep all the dates and places apart in my head.
I think what I like most about history is studying about the common person. What were the peasants' and villagers' lives like, the plain, everyday people who became our ancestors? I think I'm more interested in this than in the easy-to-research lives of the rich and famous.

I love studying and learning history. My favorite thing to study is the Native Americans and cowboys. I love to learn about different culture and how they came about doing things.

count me in. i love studying history in general. as a journalism student, i believe that reporting on the current issues calls for a sufficient background in history. the adage says "we learn from history that men learned nothing from is." the problem is despite the richness of human history, people would be willing to forget the past as if they had to chart their own pattern from today. i hope that each of us would be reminded that the events in our contemporary lives are not far from the events of the past. the differences in setting is notable but the intangible concepts of history hardly change from time to time.

History is essential to learning more about the past that has all the reason and explanation of today's events.
