Social War (91–88 BCE)

Years: 91BCE - 88BCE

The Social War ("Social" from socii, meaning "allies"; also called the Italian War or the Marsic War), is a war waged from 91 – 88 BCE between the Roman Republic and several of the other cities in Italy, which prior to the war had been Roman allies for centuries.

"History should be taught as the rise of civilization, and not as the history of this nation or that. It should be taught from the point of view of mankind as a whole, and not with undue emphasis on one's own country. Children should learn that every country has committed crimes and that most crimes were blunders. They should learn how mass hysteria can drive a whole nation into folly and into persecution of the few who are not swept away by the prevailing madness."

—Bertrand Russell, On Education (1926)
