Gunpowder Empires

You skill shed heard of gun powder, but do you know who invented it and when it was created. It was branch created by the Chinese during the tang dynasty. This particular dynasty was active in the eighteenth century. Gunpowder contains 3 important ingredients sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal. Ironically today we use pulverization to kill but before used in weapons the Chinese plan it could cure skin diseases. Soon after powders get potential was discover. The Chinese then invented the cannon. Three major empires saw the force out of these cannon and began to create and experiment with this new technology.As known technology modernistic so did cannon building and other small arms. This allowed the empires that invested in this technology to strengthen and spread out and subdue more lands. As these empires spread out they began to intrude on European cities. Naturally Europeans didnt appreciate the intrusion. The Europeans began to compact back and start wars, most importa ntly at the battle of capital of Austria. Vienna was a very important city for the powderpuff Empire to conquer seeing how it is the easy passage through the mountains to Europe, a sort of doorway. The Ottoman Empire attacks the best they could fighting the Europeans.The fighting was so close that solely the long waited Calvary from Poland was able to save the Europeans from total disaster. Maybe if the ottomans pulverisation was more powerful and closer to todays formula they would rich person won. If the Calvary had never showed up the entire history of Europe would be different. Another example is when the Ottoman Empire managed to conquer Istanbul. You may be wondering how anyone could get past the 50 by 40 root walls of Istanbul. The Ottoman Empire developed huge cannon. These cannon were 20 half-dozen feet long and 18 inches thick. It shot carved stone balls that weighed in dissipation of six hundred pounds.These alone werent enough to take peck the wall however the ott omans came up with a clever strategy. What the ottomans did was build twenty six of these bad boys and divide them into three groups each group open fire at one desired point along the wall with days of constant battering at one point the wall came down. The gunpowder undoubtedly changed history, even though some people believe that if gunpowder was never discovered the world would be a safer place. They might be right but I dont see how we could have reached this point in development without technology.
