John is a very curious character that questions as to why the World State has chosen to run its people. History is important in literature and in real life because it helps people to not repeat the same mistakes. For example, John wonders why everybody can’t simply be of the same class, and that is because the world will come to an end much faster than anticipated. People will fight over what is theirs, and slowly re-rank themselves. There needs to be harmony amongst the poor, middle class, and rich, that is the only way the world can continue to co-exist. History is written down for future generations to learn from mistakes and move on from causalities in a harmonious manner that won’t cause any more
