Past events that influence us today, yes, but that don't determine our future. We can froth at the mouth discussing which is more important - the source of civilization in an area or who conquered/had power over it afterward. But in the long run - that is still history and will not determine how things develop from here on
You missed my point entirely. It is the recent history which influences the future not a long distant past. The 3 rd WW will probably start over a slice of land now claimed by Ukraine which in the not so distant past was Russia.
