Aztek-TV - Medieval Weekend of La Tente Verte (Reenactment)

See the pix for free on www.Aztek-TV;com

During the Medieval Weekend in the Belgian Ardennes, more than 600 reenacters lived the life of 1466 without the presence of "tourists", or other "out of role" visitors. It was just the Medieval camp hidden in the forests...

Aztek-TV was very happy to receive one of the very rare permissions to make a photo & film report...

That's what European people thought, we even thought the Devil was in him and pushed him to find this invention out. But it's all just to show Europe as superior, but no it's the Chinese who found it out. Sources prooves it.

Your not completely wrong if your talking about it for French history or for the 100 year war, but in Europe it was the first used in Spain in 1248. Gunpowder was found out by the Chinese as a medicine, and was then changed to gunpowder mixture we know in the 10th century. Firework already existed long time before too so it explains much of it too, but officially the Chinese used it first in the battlefield in 1132. Mongolians used it thereafter, Indians too then Arabs and finally the Europeans.
