It’s easy for history to be written & interpreted from nationalistic & regional viewpoints. Propaganda-ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one’s cause or damage an opposing cause.

11 How to Detect Fallacies Use Essential Questions: Ask How & Why?? Research using Multi-sources: Primary & Secondary Use logical reasoning: Who said this? What are his/her qualifications, or bias?
