The knowledge of children in high school is already quite large: they know about the Napoleonic wars, they can debate about the development of an industrial society and tell about the struggle for the division of the world. Participation in the school history contest for the 8th grade will allow the participant to not get lost in such extensive topics. The student will be able to repeat the material by solving test questions with answers. Successful training will bring the participant a high score at the regional level.
