Answer:

Yes, there is a right or wrong way you can interpret a historical event.

Step-by-step explanation:

Over dramatic, under dramatic, offensive, or wrong information that is given is the wrong way to interpret a historical event. Values that might help historical inquiry be correct are honesty, telling it exactly how it was, and giving facts is the right way to interpret a historical event. Going off of your own opinion, spreading false facts, spreading propaganda, picking sides, or making the "bad guy" seem even worse in the situation is the wrong way to interpret a historical event.
