For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Of course it is not simply 'just made up of myths', but the very nature of 'history' as a recorded, 'official' version of the past means that there will be an inevitable bias to any one particular version of events.
This as a question of historiography rather than history, and I suggest you approach it by juxtaposing 'history' (i.e. recorded version of events) and 'the past' (i.e. what actually hapened).
