There are so many parts of history to learn about. There is so much more than what is taught in school. History is vast, interesting, and has so many small events, important people, to learn about. History is fun to learn about, too; there truly is something for everyone. It's impossible to learn about absolutely every piece of history, but people can get pretty close with the use of all the information on the web!
The Internet is an encyclopedia of information, literally! It's pretty impressive the amount of information and the variety of images that can be found online. From nostalgic images from the 90s to historic images from big, global events that might be kind of rare to see. These images make people think.
