History of a country is the root of its citizens History is basically the description of the change of human life style, the process and the way a country has gone through and the incidents within. It might sound so simple and unimportant to know about it but actually history is the story of how people end up as they are right now. For example, let?s say that there is a Chinese man living in a rural village. History tells him how his country was formed, how his region and his village were formed by whom, and how his ancestors settled in that area. The reason why this Chinese man sits in that area History is the Foundation of One?s Identity Kyeongtae Kim (19 95 - Present ) I

Civil law involves disputes between two parties and defines relationships between them. B. Participants in the Judicial System
