Kudos to GOOD for bringing this up. There are many other governments and regimes that alter history to make it more favorable for themselves and they're not all the typical, demi-god, dictator leaders either. In Japan, they're re-writing history so none of the aggression they enacted during WWII is written for Japanese school children to learn about. In their perfect world, there were no massacres, sex slaves (comfort women as they were called), for all we know, if we didn't make that cheesy Hollywood blockbuster, they'd probably say we imagined Pearl Harbor, too.
