Rules


History is an argument, made by someone who is backing their thesis with research and documentation. Whether you are talking about technology, Darwin's theory of Evolution, or the Roman Empire. Aside from History being an argument it is also an interpretation, so opinions will vary!

There are a few rules I'd like everyone to abide by:

Keep it Civil!

Do not be rude.

No foul language.

Keep information relevent to the topic. If it is not post it in a new topic.

Do not debate with someone just for the sake of argument.

Provide sources whenever possible.

If you do disagree with someone regarding their information, explain the faults of their argument politely. And provide some information proving your argument for their consideration. Or post it in a new topic.
