According to the question, what you write today will become history tomorrow, and history has already passed, so you don't need to learn anything.

Taking copper as a mirror, you can be dressed up, people can be learned, you can know the gains and losses, take history as a mirror, and you can know the rise and fall.

- Li Shimin

In a country like China, which has a history of thousands of years, what has not happened in history? If you have seen a lot, you will naturally have a solution, you don't need to be confused, pick up the tools of history to solve the problems of the moment, and the so-called history is contemporary history.

In today's international environment, the two most typical countries that lack historical background (the whole people do not learn history) are South Korea and the United States. Needless to say, the United States does not have an empire that will never decline, this simple truth is incomprehensible to a country that has only been founded for 248 years (1776-2024) and has hardly experienced a period of decline (now is only the beginning of decline), and even a country in China that has not been ruled by a dynasty (268 years of the Qing Dynasty, 276 years of the Ming Dynasty), so it is indeed difficult for the United States to learn from history.

I remember watching a British movie before, and a history teacher said that it doesn't take a semester to teach American history.

History is in the past, so why should we let everyone learn history?

I won't talk much about the problems of the United States here, just take your time and have fun, and here I will mainly talk about South Korea.

South Korea's problem is not that it has no history, but that it has no history that can be mastered. What should a Korean elementary school student do, the more he learns Korean history, the more inferior he becomes, and even autism? You can only make history on your own.

In fact, Jizi Joseon can be regarded as good in the world, and Jizi is called the "Three Sages" of the Shang Dynasty along with Bigan and Weizi. It is also mentioned in the neutrino. There is no shame in taking the basket as the ancestor. But here's the problem: Mizi Korea has only a small footprint in today's South Korea, which leads to another problem of South Korea's inferiority, and the Korean Peninsula has not yet been reunified.

Moreover, South Korea's territory is too small, 103,000 square kilometers, which is only two-thirds of our Shandong province (156,000 square kilometers). South Korea has a population of 50 million, ranking 27th in the world, which looks pretty good; However, compared with China, the population of individual provinces exceeds that of South Korea (Shandong, Henan, Sichuan), and the population of neighboring Japan and Russia exceeds 100 million.

The younger brother has been an elder brother for a long time, and he dreams of being an elder brother, but he can't be an elder brother in reality, and he has to be an elder brother to create history.

History is in the past, so why should we let everyone learn history?

His own traditional culture is disdainful of learning, and the culture he created is nondescript, which makes South Korea's national character very twisted: both inferior and arrogant; I want to be completely Westernized and I want to preserve my traditions; I want to integrate and lead East Asia as an elder brother, but because of my limited strength, I can only be a younger brother (unwillingly).

South Korea's failed bid to host the World Expo is a case in point:

Don't even want to add a Korean annotation? Even if Uncle Bird has another song "Gangnam Style" on the spot, although the song is old, it is also a global pop song, what the hell is this only one choice? What do you want to express? Except for South Korea, no other country deserves to run?

There are too many jokes in South Korea, and Qingdao has a very low opinion of Koreans. The group of Koreans who ran away from the factory back then were still operating normally the day before, but there were too many empty buildings the next day, and many Chinese from Kazakhstan and Han worked under the Koreans, known as: two devils. It's not a good word either. And, what are the specialties of Korea? Barbecue? Can they afford to eat on their own? Pickle? It was all imported from our Shandong. Troop pot? The American GI said that this was clearly our original.

To sum up, the consequences of not studying history can be seen in South Korea in the near near and the United States in the distance. Do you say important or not? It's better to grab the history book quickly, as long as you want to learn, it's never too late.
