History

History, in brief, is the humanity which explains the human condition based on the chronological record of significant events and their related causes.

Sites about local history are usually placed in the appropriate subcategory of the Regional hierarchy.

Do not submit sites about local (e.g. town, city, county) history unless pertinent to an event or place of national or international significance. For example, a site about the founding of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania is Regional in interest, whereas a site about the course of the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, a turning point in the American Civil War, would be accepted into the Society/History category of the same.

Society/History is best suited to academic or scholarly sites devoted to history of civilizations, or of particular branches or philosophies of history.

Academic Departments

This category is intended for the sites of programs of study and academic departments of history at three- or four-year colleges and universities. Generally, only departments whose main language of instruction is English are listed here, although some departments which do not teach in English, but which have English language websites, will also be listed. See the relevant "see also" listings (or browse the World categories) for departments teaching in other languages.
