Fuck Yeah, History Major Heraldic Beast

Those who forget the past are doomed to fail the midterm.

The History Major Heraldic Beast will post anything pertaining to any field of history. The beast is aware that right now this blog is mostly western European/American history, but those have been the submissions popping up in the inbox. Don't be afraid to submit your wry observations about the Mali empire, or the Ming dynasty, or Clovis culture, or the effects of Soviet collectivization on the indigenous people of northeastern Siberia. They will be posted.

If it's tagged "submission", I neither made it nor wrote the commentary beneath it, unless the words "The Beast Says" are involved.

The History Major Heraldic Beast will not post submissions containing racial or ethnic slurs. Seriously, people, what the fuck. You know who you are. Stop sending them in.

  • I’ve only managed to read abridged versions of Canadian History, but what I have managed to learn is so rich and varied and I can’t believe some people discredit our history because we’re Canadian so it can’t possibly be interesting. Nothing interesting ever happened to Canada! Except for the Plains of Abraham, the war of 1812, Regulation 17 in Ontario, numerous social dilemmas, we had a drunkard for a first Prime Minister who successfully created this country in 1867, Louis Riel who was a religious nutcase while simultaneously being a hero for the Métis and a great leader, how Trudeau finally brought about the idea of making our country officially bilingual in Pearson’s stead, the idea of Multiculturism, how we dealt with the Cold War, and I am missing so much more and I don’t even have a thorough or extensive understanding about these topics! How is any of this boring?! People are crazy! I mean, fine, it’s not as long as, say, European or Eastern history, but there’s still so much to work with!

      Don’t forget how Canadians successfully took Vimmy ridge in 3 days after everyone else failed.
