In fact, it is normal for Xixia not to compile history, because Xixia was not a big country at that time, but a small border country; It may be because the folk customs are tough, so they are very powerful, and they can even get along with Liao and Song for a long time. However, even though Xixia people are brave and good at fighting, they still can't erase the fact that it is a small country. You know, to record a country's history, there must be a special historian, and editing unofficial history privately among the people is a big crime of decapitation.

Although I don't know if there is a rule that Xixia is not allowed to write history books privately, it is certain that there are no historians in Xixia, because Xixia was only a relatively strong nomadic people at that time. They don't value the inheritance of culture, but care more about food and living conditions. Therefore, Xixia has never had a unified text and rules. Since there are no words, how can there be history books?

In addition, there is another reason that I think is also very reliable. In fact, there are many small countries except Xixia that have no history books, such as the famous Xiongnu clan in history, and there is no history of Xiongnu. Not only did they have no unified writing, but also because most of the nomadic people at that time were good at singing and dancing, and they preferred to make the stories into pleasant songs instead of writing them in books. So when Xixia was destroyed, the people in their tribe died and the culture disappeared.

There may be another reason. According to unofficial history, Xixia was extinct by Mongols at that time. The Mongols were very tough at that time. After they invaded Xixia, they not only killed the citizens of Xixia, but also burned all the books, calligraphy and paintings in Xixia, leaving only gold, silver, jewelry and grain that could be bought and sold. I think this is one of the reasons why Xixia did not compile history. Maybe those history books have already disappeared in the fire.
