I don't think the issue is only the history.

Surprisingly large number of people believe that if people in the neighbouring city vote to speak on their language and govern themselves locally, they deserve punishment up to death.

And there is similarly large number of people who believe that it is noble to die for a line on the map.

So forgetting history would have a very small effect only on a very small number of conflicts.
