Personally I find the Korean war incredibly fascinating because I think that many of the issues that were settled during that time period are even in 2014 very important. An example, would be the DMZ which still exists today and is considered the most heavily fortified border in the world. This is not only true for this war but all wars. WW2 was incredibly influential for the creation of the modern world as was the American Civil War. Essentially what I feel is necessary to explain is that when people argue that studying the past is useless I personally disagree because everything that happens in the past has an implication now as well.
What do you guys think???
