You should read 1984. It talks a lot about the important of controlling the narrative, controlling the past.

"The past was alterable. The past never had been altered. Oceania was at war with Eastasia. Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia."

If I remember correctly, in the end Oceania becomes Eastasia ally, So now its written Oceania had always been Eastasia ally. It was the job of the protagonist to alter history to be more favorable to the party.
