How much economic history did you put in PS,and what topics did you talk about?

I talked about a decent amount of economic history,in my first paragraph I discussed how historicalperspectives can inform contemporary economicdecision making using the Great Depression and the2008 financial crisis as examples from Krugman’sbook. Then the rest of my personal statement had amore mathematical focus, but I did try to link 1paragraph to maths and economic history using alinear programming + game theory to model banks inthe Great Depression. Overall I would say 60/40 splitof economics and economic history but I tried to link the two. What about you?
