Gunpowder was invented by the Chinese people around 700 A.D. Its invention would start a revolutionary change for military weapons around the world and would become the starting point for today’s weapons. The Chinese did not know it at the time, but they had just made a big step forward for the world in military technology. They first used gunpowder for fireworks rather than using it to become a powerful military force. If the Chinese had used gunpowder for making weapons instead of fireworks upon first discovering it in 700 A.D., they would have had a great advantage over most other civilizations and could easily have become a military superpower.

The big project that the nazis did was called the “Uranium Project”. It was ran by two German scientist named Otto Hahn, and Fritz Strassmann. They were mixing two chemicals called uranium and neutrons. The outcome of mixing the two chemicals was brainium. It is half the size of uranium but a dedler one. Another person that led the uranium project was army physicist Kurt Diebner. He helped find out that if you slow down and control the explosive it will explode bigger. Chemist Gerhard Schrader was believed to be the first to create a nerve gas. He is also known as “Father of the nerve agent.” He was the man who created the gas called tuban which was used in gas

Gunpowder was invented by Chinese alchemists in the 9th century. At first it was made by mixing sulfur, charcoal, and saltpeter, which is potassium nitrate. The charcoal normally came from willow trees, but other plants were used as well.  The ingredients were carefully ground together, the end result was a powder that was called

After the bomb, there was an atomic race and everyone felt they needed an atomic bomb because the U.S. had one and that was a threat to many people. I do not think that we should have killed those people. That is mainly because now there are problems with the

One of the most important inventions would have been the steam engine invented by James Watt from Scotland. He improve the original steam engine designed by Thomas Savery in 1698. This engine that Watt made, replaced the former engine used created by Thomas Newcomen. The main reason they used Watts version was because it doubled Newcomen’s fuel efficiency. A steam engine was used to remove water from coal mines as fast and successfully as possible. The steam engine was also used for
