<Abstract>

This article examines the possibility of simulation programs in computational history as a new methodology in the history of the AI era. This article tries to connect simulation models, including agent-based models and history, which are considered the last bastion of modernity. Computational history, utilizing simulation modeling, could expand the research horizon of history and provide a new way to study the past. Simulation modeling of the past does not mean deviating from the goal of traditional historical studies: to describe and understand the past and to predict the future based on it. Simulation modeling as a new way of understanding the past will present a new possibility of interpretation of the past by constructing and executing a virtual world using computing power beyond the human ability in the computer.
