Definitely. History shows the background of the world, so we can understand current affairs. For example, how would we know why some Muslims are so opposed to Christians if we did not know how we tried to slaughter them wholesale during the Crusades? Or how could we know why there is so much infighting within the Middle East if we did not know that many of the nations' national boundaries were drawn on a whim by Winston Churchill, and not by the countries themselves?
