Abstract: Abstract Since history is a narrative of the past, the question about fake history seems irrelevant. However, our purpose in this chapter is not to reveal fake stories about the past, but instead to generate them. The reason we choose to attack fake history with this method is to demonstrate our vulnerabilities to fake narratives. A good narrative is easy to believe, no matter its truthiness. Therefore, we wish to warn the reader: Be careful! Most of history can be faked, and this chapter shows just how to do that.
