They hated each other so much that they refused to speak to each other

Minor events can be made to seem huge and extremely significant ones can be downplayed or totally overlooked. It’s hard to be on the lookout for all the different biases that can color what we learn about events we weren’t even alive to witness. One of the strangest ways our understanding of history can be manipulated deals with time. Some
