The first date of ice skating has been lost in the annals of history. There have been crude ice skate found in Finland from about 4,000 years ago. For more history, read the link below.
History is listing what happened, when, where and if possible why. It is usually facts (because something either happened or it didn't, and often a large amount of proof is available), but occassionally historians are reduced to making educated guesses where that proof is lacking or lost.
History can often decide history. For example, The sacond punic war (Carthage vs Rome). Hannibal lost thousands of men on the alps (Livy puts it at 36,000). This had an ompact on his ability in Italy. Hannibal also won victory at the Trebbia as the river froze the Romans spirits. There are many other examples in history. I really hope that this isn't a homework question for you.
History is a science that studies the logical connections between events in the past, slowly creeping up to the present day and helps to suggest what will happen tomorrow. How does it work? If you lost all your money yesterday, today you won't be able to eat, tomorrow you will have health problems. With historical events, the logic works similarly.
It has often been said that the history of wars are written by the winners of those wars. Since Canada won the War of 1812, the history of it was written by and for Canadians. It has also often been said that the losers of wars tend to forget about those wars. Since the US lost the War of 1812, there has been a strong tendency to ignore it.
