Some of the typo fixes introduce new typos ;)

Honestly, a lot of the history sections aren't well written, they have awkward and incorrect grammar. Reviewing this patch, I'm finding 5x as many errors as it fixes. If we really want them to be correct, they will need rewriting from scratch or at least careful proofreading. This is one of the reasons why we have delayed translation work on the game, it's annoying to make minor corrections to existing text that we know eventually needs to be rewritten.

Well, translations are already here, so you are more than welcome to rewrite from scratch anything that needs to :)
