Personally I am fond of the Battle of Red Cliffs which happened during the early
period of the Three Kingdoms. This was a decisive battle at the end of the Han
Dynasty. It was also a typical battle in Chinese history renowned for a smaller
and weaker army defeating a larger and stronger foe.
Yes, the main factor is that like our native language and our history forms our
cultural identity and provides a unique record of our country. We can learn from
the experiences of history to correct our current actions.
Yes, I enjoy watching documentaries about history on TV because I can see a lot
of materials that cannot be seen in the textbooks. I watch them at home during
my time off with my son to learn something about history.
I don't feel that watching current TV series can make you more aware of the
history. TV programmes are more engaging than books, however, true historical
events in most of the TV series have been distorted by the producers to cater for
the audience. It's really a shame, as young people will misunderstand history as
presented by these companies.
Yes. History is full of debates but you can understand both sides of the story by

many writers nowadays.
