It refers to the past events of a country or society as they unfold over time, and the records of those events.
It is usually used as a noun, and it can indicate a range together with a preceding word, as in ‘한국 역사’ (Korean history) and ‘세계 역사’ (world history). It is also very natural as a school subject name. The similar word ‘과거’ refers more broadly to an earlier time, while ‘역사’ more strongly suggests learning about past events and their development.
