Default Skill: History - Specialization

So... is there an official list of History specializations (Required) and (Optional)?

How about the other skills that have ambiguous specializations like Magic Ritual?

And if no official ones exist... what are your thoughts?

There's no comprehensive list of History specialisations, because they vary by setting, as discussed here.

My thoughts is that some will be more usefull than others, in the campaign im playing currently I have History (Military) and it has come in handy.

The dwarves at the table have Dwarven history, and it has yet to come up once, but the mage has History (Magic) and it has been used a lot.

Its a matter of campaign.
