Question

HELP QUICK!(ps.I DONT WANT FACTS I WANT A PARAGRAPH!!!)

Use what you have learned to write a paragraph in response to the following:

How could there be different explanations for the same event in history?

Answer 1

Two people might witness the event but not necessarily have the same point of view. Some people might be experts in a certain area, like warfare or being a ship's captain, and therefore might be more qualified to say what actually happened than someone without that expertise. Both people could be telling the truth as they saw and heard it, but the actual events might be different. In addition, some people might be biased, and their personal opinions of an event could influence their account.

Answer 2

There can be different explanations for the same event in history because there are two sides to every story. For an example the revolutionary war can be told from George Washington’s point of view as well as from King George |||. George Washington could say that The Boston Tea Party was a simple retaliation from the Patriots to the British for being unfair by only allowing tea to be bought from British companies, but King George ||| can say that The Boston Tea Party was an act of pure disrespect for the British.
