/r/History is a place for discussions about history. Feel free to submit interesting articles, tell us about this cool book you just read, or start a discussion about who everyone's favorite figure of minor French nobility is!

Please note that we do not accept submissions about things that did happen in the past 20 years as they are often discussed as current events, not history.

An introduction to /r/history

Subreddit rules:

Be nice!
Personal attacks, abusive language, trolling or bigotry in any form is not allowed. No hate material, be it submissions or comments, are accepted.
No politics or soapboxing.
Submissions & comments that are overtly political will be removed; political topics are only acceptable if discussed in a historical context. Comments should discuss a historical topic, not advocate an agenda. This is entirely at the moderators' discretion and violators will be fed to the bear.
Post in the right subreddit.
Some content is better suited for other subreddits:
- Image links /r/historyporn
- Specific questions /r/askhistorians
- Homework questions /r/homeworkhelp
- Personal material with multiple updates (blogs, history journals, academic publications) /r/historyblogs.
- Link submissions that follow the "this day XX years ago XX happened" /r/thisdayinhistory.
Follow the rules of reddit.
Don't spam, manipulate votes, doxx, or post illegal content.
Post from the original site.
Spam is not acceptable.
Follow reddiquette and remember the human.
Comments should be on-topic and contribute to the conversation in a meaningful way.
When submitting link posts, leave a description, in a comment, following your submission.
Focus on the quality, subject, authority, etc. Be the one that starts the discussion! This should not be a quote from your submission.
Self Posts require a descriptive body text.
When submitting a self post you should expand a little bit on the title in order to get the discussion started. For example: When submitting a question you can expand on what motivated you to ask the question.
This is an actively moderated subreddit, calls will be made at the moderator's discretion.
