In my world, history comes down to language and art. No one cares much about what battles were fought, who won them and who lost them - unless there is a painting, a play, a song or a poem that speaks of the event. ↗

Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war. ↗
