Historically Full of Lies

As young students, we grow up trusting academic books and our teachers. We trust that whoever wrote our books was accurate. We trust our ancestors and their experiences. But what if trusting them is a bad idea? What if everything that we have ever been taught about history is a lie? We have no true proof of anything. History is mostly taking people's word for situations that happened. We do not know the true effects of historical events. Someone could have made every aspect of history up and today, we would not know the difference because that part of history has been pounded into our heads so much that it seems so realistic. As students, we could be in a trance of manipulation. History could be a giant mystery.
