History as we read and endorse is only inferences drawn by various persons interested in that field,know not why. Inferences may be mixed with innocent subjectivity or may be product of highly interestedness, may also be product of prompting,misrepresentation ,undue influence ,ulterior motive , otherwise other consideration.
History is after all narrations as per one's perception and analysis.
One's own views and culture has always a role to play
