Did you know that in the 18th century, it was fashionable for wealthy Europeans to have their own personal dwarfs? Even more amazingly, the ancient Chinese practiced a form of foot binding on young girls, where their feet were tightly bound to prevent them from growing.

They didn’t go to war over a bucket. Modena was a Ghibelline City and thus supported the empire, while Bologna was Guelph. Around that time the pope called on Guelph cities to attack Ghibelline cities, they hated each other, and Modena conquered one of the two main defensive bolognese forts in a previous fight over the bolognese burning some farms. The bucket was stolen AFTER the so called “Bucket war, right after Modena had captured the other bolognese defensive fort.

Both sides: "It's not about the bucket, it's the disrespect"
