When I studied history back in the day I hated the books because it was always remembering wars and wars and dates etc.

Now I like to put more focus on the various individuals that effected our history.
I much prefer to look at the psychology behind the different rulers and societies and what the psychology of each time period conveyed.

The significance of looking at history from a psychological standpoint allows us to learn about how so many times societies were so impacted by the psychological status of the different rulers. Some of the rulers were very mentally unstable human beings and often distorted the societal beliefs and conducts.
