History is the study and analysis of past events. Only a small range of historical "facts" can actually be verified. Most researchers who study historic accounts, historians, are aware that present perspective colors our interpretation of past events. Therefore, interpretations of past events frequently change over time. Interpretations and analysis based on primary sources—documents produced during or shortly after the period in question—are usually considered the most valuable.


The subcategory History by topic contains histories of various topics, including art and science.
