Hi Jos,

>History is truly written by the victors. Or even better by George Orwell in 1984 "Who controls the past, controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past".
And in some cases,
rewritten. :o) The Soviet Union is a perfect example. Our own textbooks in American schools is another good example. When it comes to American History you often read a different version of depending on if you went to school in the North or the South! Historians are attempting to remedy that now but not all schools have the funds for the updated textbooks. That is assuming of course that the historians that corrected the textbooks are correct!
