For some people, there is nothing more enjoyable than learning as much about human history as possible. What could be more fascinating than the story of all that we know? It truly is the greatest story that has ever been written and we are all contributing to writing it every day. The interesting thing about history is that you can never learn all of it. With new events that happen around the world all the time, we are always creating new history so it is basically impossible to ever reach a stage where you have learned it all.
So much of what has taken place in human history gets repeated through different generations, across different geographical boundaries, and amongst different people. Learning about history is a great way to understand the universal traits of people and avoid making the same mistakes they did in the past. If you think that you know as much about history as someone who teaches the subject, then you might do very well on a quiz like this. Only someone who is a history teacher would find this test as easy as pie. Let's see how well you can do.
