Historians often disagree due to varying interpretations of evidence, differing methodologies, and personal biases that influence their perspectives. The availability of sources, the context in which they are analyzed, and the questions historians prioritize can lead to contrasting conclusions. Additionally, evolving societal values and new discoveries can reshape historical narratives, prompting ongoing debate among scholars.

Why is it important for historians to disagree with each other?
Without disagreement there can be no discussion. Not only in the field of history but in many of the scientific fields, discussion is necessary to move forward. Should all of the historieans in the world agree on a set history (one that is unverifiable) the field itself would halt. Sometimes wrong conclusions are made. If there are no historians willing to disagree with one another these conclusions can be perpetuated.
