Warfare

A detailed Summary of Warfare

From the beginning of time we have all seen things grow and

evolve to "bigger and better things". Take the t.v. for example. This

magnificent invention has evolved from being black and white, to high

definition color, surround sound, and can fit in your pants pocket no

problem. Other creations in life have evolved as well, especially in

the art of warfare. Today with the push of a single button entire

countries are able to be destroyed. The accuracy and efficiency of the

guns in this era are mind boggling. Deadly weapons are now the size

of a hand and can be carried nearly everywhere without being

noticed. This is just a glimpse at today's warfare technology. Back in

the day, when men were men, they did not have grenades or machine

guns to mow down their enemy. They had to do it the old fashioned

way, hand to hand combat. Over the thousands of years of man's

existence, he has helped shaped the growth of technology in warfare.

From 1300 to 1660 Europe's warfare underwent its most enormous

transformation; gunpowder, mobile and effective cannon, and

reasonably useful small firearms had a profound effect, both in the

technology of war and its social organization.
