Why is it feminine?
Storia is feminine because it derives from Latin "historia," which was feminine in gender. Italian nouns ending in "-ia" are typically feminine, and this gender was preserved through the evolution from Latin into Italian. However, note that "musica" is an exception—while it ends in "-a" (not "-ia"), it is still feminine. The pattern of feminine "-ia" endings (like "poesia," "geografia," "storia") represents a regular inheritance from Latin.
