Some scholar once said that History is written by the winners. He used histories of the 1920-1950's written by historians from France and Germany as illustration. Tried to picture what the interpretation of certain pivotal events of the 1930's would be had Germany won the war, and how the histories would run. That TV series on what would happen in the US had Germany/Japan won the war, and split the US up into west cost (Japan) and East coast (Germany) illustrates what he was talking about. Also interesting to speculate about what the histories would look like had the South fought the north to a stand-still, and established a separate nation.
