20 History Memes Sharing Some Memorable Fun Facts

There's no better way to learn about and remember things than through the help of memes. Memes are so simple and easily shared that they create the perfect jokes to stick in your mind forever. Learning through memes should be a new way to study, entertain and learn all in one. I mean, the thing about the History Channel or popular series Drunk History is they're both entertaining programs where you walk away with an extra fact or two stored in your brain for a later date.

Surprisingly, history memes are super popular. Reddit's /r/historymemes is a popular and active subreddit dedicated to sharing and discussing history-related memes of all kinds. There are so many different times in history, so even if you aren't a big history buff now, chances are you'll find a niche that intrigues you. Here are just 20 of the thousands of history memes out there. Maybe you'll leave with some new trivia.
