Yes. Victors DO write history. However, I think we have to put this in the correct perspective and say "Sinners write history".
Now that would alert everyone about the possible dishonesty and corrupted views we can occasionally encounter when glossing over the past. (I'm not suggesting that the victors were always wrong, only that they too suffered from degenerate human weaknesses.)

Of course the victor writes history, they won, they can say what they want no one can stand or argue vs them.

I believe this because think about ww1 and ww2 in ww1 the germans got blamed for everything and they said that they started it and everything well think did they really start it no and that is because they didn't win and ww2 if the germans won do you think we would be seeing in the history books that what the germans did were bad no it would be saying that they were horrible things that didn't deserve to live

Yes, Nazis were evil but the allied weren't innocent either.
You hardly ever see Stalin being criticized for all the people he got killed or Americans for the atomic bomb.
But Nazis get bashed from time to time again for the genocide among other things, yes it was horrible but so was the atomic bomb etc.

The mongol horde ruled by Genghis Khan was the biggest empire on earth, however the history written about the Mongols depicted them as blood thirsty barbarians who raped and pillaged all. The mongol empire though actual connected Europe and Asian countries, spread technologies,religions, and philosophies. Also the Mongols did not force religion on others and created a pretty equal society. The majority of the literature at the time and about the Mongols was written by the conquered or scared people.
