philosophical Circles and started writing in philosophy the following are the philosophy of history according to comte.

           Philosophy of history, this means though about the past events or critical thinking about historical concepts, method and theory about history. Augustine Comte, In full Isidore  Augustine marine, Francosis Xavier he was born  January 19, 1798 Montpe llier France-died September 5, 1857 pans) he was a French philosopher known as the founder of sociology (Charles A. Ellwood 1938). Comte was influenced in economical and philosopher under Sant

Simon Intelage. Comte become active in philosophical Circles and started writing in philosophy the following are the philosophy of history according to comte.

                  History should be based on positivism, positivism is a philosophical theory state that certain (positive) know ledge is based on natural phenomena and their properties and relations. Thus on formation of history derived from sensory experience interpreted through reason and logic forms the exclusive source of all certain knowledge that to hold that valid knowledge is found any in the posterior knowledge. That mean an historian must write the historical information that based on logic and reason in any studying phenomena so comte argue that any historian must based in positivism in writing any historical information and not in valid (Auguste Comte 1988).

So comte gives a in A General View of Positivism French philosopher Auguste Comte (1798 1857) gives an overview of his social philosophy known as Positivism. Comte, credited with coining the term' sociology' and one of the first to argue for it as a science, is concerned with reform, progress and the problem of social order in society. In this English edition of the work, published in 1865, he addresses the practical problems of implementing his philosophy or doctrine, as he also refers to Positivism, into society. He believes that society evolves through a series of stages that are ruled by social laws and culminate in a superior form of social Iife. During this reorganisation of society, which will find its greatest supporters among women and the working class, a 'new moral power will emerge. Under the motto love, order and progress' Comte wishes humanism to replace organized religion as the object of spiritual worship (Auguste comte 1865).

According to Comte, all human societies went through three natural stages of development across their history. He recognized that these changes were not instantaneous, nor did everyone in a society accept them at the same time. Like his theory of individual development, however, this law also began with humans as obedient and resolved them as critical. The three stages of this development were:

                Stage One: The Theological stage. This was the first stage of human development,

where people understood the world and the natural phenomena within it as supernatural Specifically, societies developed personified deities that represented natural forces and obeyed the laws of these deities absolutely. Theology, is the systematic study of the nature of the divine and, more broadly, of religious belief. It is taught as an academic discipline, typically in universities and seminaries. It occupies itself with the unique content of analyzing the supernatural, but also deals with religious epistemology, asks and seeks to answer the question of revelation. Revelation pertains to the economic acceptance of God, gods, or deities, as not only transcendent or above the natural world, but also willing and able to interact with the natural world and, in particular, to reveal themselves to humankind. While theology has turned into a secular field, religious adherents still consider theology to be a discipline that helps them live and understand concepts such as life and love and that helps them lead lives of obedience to the deities they follow or

                 Second stage metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that examines the fundamental nature of reality, including the relationship between mind and matter, between substance and attribute, and between potentiality and actuality. The word "metaphysics" comes from two Greek words that, together, literally mean "after or behind or among [the study of] the natural". It has been suggested that the term mignt have been coined by a first century CE editor who assembled various small selections of Aristotle's works into the treatise we now know by the name Metaphysics (ta meta phusika, 'atter the Physics', another of Aristotle's works). Metaphysics studies questions related to what it is for something to exist and what types of existence there are. Metaphysics seeks to answer, in an abstract and fully general manner, the questions.

What is there?

What is it like?

Comte describes the metaphysical phase of humanity as the time since the Enlightenment, a time steeped in logical rationalism, to the time right after the French Revolution. This second phase states that the universal rights of humanity are most important. The central idea is that humanity is invested with certain rights that must be respected. In this phase, democracies and dictators rose and fell in attempts to maintain the innate rights of humanity.

The final stage of the trilogy of Comte's universal law is the scientific, or positive, stage. The central idea of this phase is that individual rights are more important than the rule of any one person. Comte stated that the idea of humanity's ability to govern itself makes this stage inherently different from the rest. There is no higher power governing the masses and the intrigue of any one person can achieve anything based on that individual's free will. The third principle is most important in the positive stage. Comte calls these three phases the universal rule in relation to society and its development. Neither the second nor the third phase can be reached without the completion and understanding of the preceding stage. All stages must be completed in progress.

Finally Comte believed that the appreciation of the past and the ability to build on it towards the future was key in transitioning from the theological and metaphysical phases. The idea of progress was central to Comte's new science, sociology. Sociology would "lead to the historical consideration of every science" because "the history of one science, including pure political history, would make no sense unless it was attached to the study of the general progress of all of humanity". As Comte would say: "from science comes prediction; from prediction comes action." It is a philosophy of human intellectual development that culminated in science. The irony of this series of phases is that though Comte attempted to prove that human development has to go through these three stages, it seems that the positivist stage is far from becoming a realization. This is due to two truths: The positivist phase requires having a complete understanding of the universe and world around us and requires that society should never know

if it is in this positivist phase.

History must deal with the society comte philosophy of history suggest that  the history must come out with ideas which concerning with society is the one that makes history eg French revolution (1789) which occur in French helped the society of French in rise of democracy also other elites use French revolution are an example to get democracy for example French revolution led to the occurrence of European revolution

Thus the society is the one that makes history for stance French society makes a history through French revolution

    History moves in cyclical motion Comte philosophy of history explain that both past and present can communicate each other. So other because we can use past predict the future which can be used to refer the past.For example in the past Africa continent was
