24 History Memes To Teach You Some Fun Trivia Facts

History memes are an ever-popular source of entertainment and passive education. They've been growing in popularity for years now, and they're now some of the most popular memes out there due to their versatility and tendency to mock the many mistakes of people in the past, which is something we all love. But they can also have another valuable aspect as a tool for learning (or maybe not learning, but just finding out some odd facts you didn't need to know).

If you didn't know the communist origins of Tetris or what Alsace-Lorraine even is, these are the best memes for you. These history memes may just teach you something so weird and unbelievable that you'll have to share it with your unsuspecting friends. They'll definitely be annoyed, but they'll also be impressed by your newfound knowledge. So will you, because some of these things aren't something you'd stumble upon in a history textbook, and they can only be found in memes such as these. Here are some of our favorites from the past week.
