History Repeats

George Santayna put this very clearly when he said the "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." History is full of examples of this. My favorite is the error of fighting a war in the Russian Winter without being fully prepared. One such disaster should be enough to learn from, but for three centuries in a row a major world power attempted this and failed disasterously-1700's Sweden, 1800's France and 1900's Germany.
