Due to this gunpowder Indian renowned kings lost to Afgahns and Mughals and later on Europeans.

Instead of making something that preserve life he mad something that ended a lot of lives.

[Imbrojeff]

by that logic, if we are trying to create a weapon of mass destruction, would we find something that gives us external life?

[Force-Multiplier]

in a way they successfully invented the immortality potion they were looking for
since what they made instantly transformed the mortal bodys into inmortal souls 💀👍

The backstory behind behind creating black powder almost seems *too ironic* for it to be true. -but if it is true, if only they knew that it would turn to, how it became the very opposite of they’re intent. Very ironic indeed.

[assia-tuzo]

That wrong it was the muslims who invented powder against mongol, if chinese invented powder why they don't use that against mongols, even the muslims created alchemy
