Post hoc ergo propter hoc (Latin for "after this, therefore because of this") is a fallacy that assumes that because one event preceded another, it caused the second event. However, just because two events occur in sequence does not necessarily mean that one caused the other. This fallacy often arises in situations where there are multiple possible causes for an event or when the true cause is unknown.
