Greetings Historians,
This week’s question is a tough one…
Would you rather live as a noble in medieval Europe or as a samurai in feudal Japan?
@HistoricalFiction In Medieval Europe. The European feudal system allowed for you to leave service to your lord while in Japan your whole family was forever tied to the family you served.
@HistoricalFiction 'medieval Europe' is v vague. Japan at least is a single country with one predominant language. Medieval Europe is a continent with hundreds of languages, over eight to ten centuries! Vast differences between an 8th C. Anglo-Saxon war leader and a 14th C. Venetian aristocrat
Greetings Historians!
Historical Fiction is hosting a week of fun-filled activities and articles on the theme of the Regency period this month. Please check out our Sands of Time for a new chapter each day this week with something new to do or read!
We’re starting the week off with a Tag Fest. Look inside the book to answer who would do what!

Welcome to a new week with Historical Fiction!
This week, We Want To Know:
What historical period or event do you find most fascinating, and why?
Been thinking a lot about Norse Expansion into the British Isles and that general area. Limerick, Islay, the possible cross pollination of Celtic and Norse myth and culture - I need to learn more about it.
@HistoricalFiction I have a lot in mind ... but I'm gonna go to my cultural roots in the Philippines. I don't know alot about it since I was raised as a toddler in the US but I've been studying about Asian culture since I was in College. I find that fascinating (as I think everyone should know a little bit of where they came from ... those family DNA tests don't tell you much and they are pricey .
Searching for a story to lose yourself in? Look no further. The HistoricalFiction profile has introduced a new selection of reading lists curated from stories found all over Wattpad. Our team works hard to find stories that they hope will delight and engage the community. So, if you’re a reader, we’ve got you covered. And if you’re a writer, you can still submit stories to be considered for our reading lists. See our Profile Guide for Reading List Submission Guidelines to learn more.

@HistoricalFiction Thanks very much for highlighting our novel 1816: the Grandest Tour to a larger audience
Greetings Historians!
Our new Reading List submission form is now open to submissions! Check out the updated Reading List Guidelines and submit your stories to the new Reading Lists!

Greetings Historians!
We are revamping our reading lists! To help us facilitate that, we will be closing our story submission forms for a short while as we set up our new lists. As soon as those forms are open again for story submissions we will let you know. We will also notify you when our guidebook has been updated with our new reading list submission guidelines.
The purpose of the revamp is to enable us to build an extensive library that will allow readers to fully immerse themselves in all the Historical genre has to offer here on Wattpad, and showcase even more amazing writers and their stories.
Thanks for your patience while we get this all sorted out.
