Hidtorical data in: OPA or EEF
Please read the 2 below parts from pmbok. I am totally confused about historical data. Is it in Opa as we all know or in project management information system which is part of EEF !?!?!?
1. Pmbok Page 58: Archive all relevant project documents in the project management information system (PMIS) to be used as historical data,
2. Pmbok page 409: OPA includes:
2.a Project records. Project records include correspondence, memos, meeting minutes, and other documents describing the project.
2.b Lessons learned documentation. Documentation includes the root cause analysis of issues faced, reasoning behind the corrective action chosen, and other types of lessons learned about stakeholder management. Lessons learned are documented and distributed, and become part of the historical database for both the project and the performing organization.

Historical is a very generic word. With respect to PMP, the PMIS belongs to EEF and Other Organization procedures, templates, guidelines, lesson learned docs belong to OPA (Which are also called as historical).

OPA is not part of EEF. You
OPA is not part of EEF. You can search on PMZilla for similar questions and explainations.
When you finish the project you upload templates, documents to OPA, this becomes repository for future projects
Political scenario in which project is executed is an example of EEF
