    Actually, history didn’t change it’s still the same as it always was. It can’t change anymore since it happened in the past.

      I think it’s fair to say that our understanding of history, something which can change because it’s always in the context of the present, has changed.

      The events that actually happened in the past didn’t change. But history is not what happened. History is what we think we know happened.

      If there is new information about events we didn’t know about before, history changes.
