History Memes That May Launch You Back In Time

Did you know that memes can also be educational? I know, shocking, alarming, life-changing. Let's alert the media.

Unless you were blessed enough to go to school when "cool" gen X teachers used memes in lectures while desperately trying to connect with their students, it's novel to see memes used educationally. History and memes have some exciting things in common. Memes and history are constantly repeating themselves. Image macros from the distant past keep coming back, and the horrors of the past are never too far away. Historical events occur, and most are quickly forgotten, with only a few juggernauts sticking in the public memory. If someone ran up to you on the street and asked you to name 15 memes, do you think you could do it? What about 15 historical wars and battles? If your answer is "no" to both of these, you are highly realistic with yourself. If your answer to these questions is "yes" to both, you're on the right page. Now start listing!
