Gunpowder Goes Brrrrr
You might be wondering to yourself, “How did the British manage to conquer over 80% of the entire world? Do you know how big this world is? If you were to walk from California to Maine, it would take you at least two days! Walking from California to Japan would take at least twice as long!
So, how did they pull off this seemingly impossible feat? Why, with gunpower, of course! It’s not very hard walking into someone’s neighborhood and stealing all of their valuables if your weapons are more advanced than theirs. You’ve heard of the saying “bringing a knife to a gunfight?” Yeah, that’s pretty much how it went down.
