Region History Skill
A character with the Region History Skill has a good understanding of the recorded events that lead to the situation of the modern day, and also has an understanding of cause and effect - that is to say how one event or situation leads logically to another that might at first glance seem unrelated. Most characters will have fairly specific specialties for their history skill, though a general understanding of world history is a valuable thing, and common to lower levels of the skill. One might consider the overview provided in the Introduction section of this site to represent a general knowledge of history, while the specific histories provided for each region represent the general knowledge for that specific area, the more detailed the information, the higher the level of the skill or speciality required to have ready access to it.
