O level Cameroon GCE 2018 quiz on History part 1

15 Questions

Quiz Description

In this quiz, we'll look at the first 15 questions from the GCE 2018 History paper.

The study of previous events has long been known to mankind as history. Economic, scientific, technological, medical, cultural, intellectual, religious, and military advancements will all play a role in the path of history, as we will see.

Professional historians usually focus on a certain aspect of history, such as the Middle Ages.

When non-historians believe that things were better in the past, they frequently romanticize the past and speak of the "good old days," while others see history purely as a record of development, with everything always getting better. People from all eras have achieved great things and made terrible mistakes, so historical change cannot be classified as either.

 With these quizzes, you will be able to revise in preparation for your upcoming exams, do well to study well.
Good luck
