The hastily developed Bishop self-propelled howitzer entered service in the summer of 1942, less than 6 months after it was first ordered.
The Bishopโs general design was largely based off of the Valentine infantry support tank.

However, while some people tried to cure the plague by punishing others, some tried to cure it by punishing themselves.
This form of religious self-punishment was known as flagellation and it experienced a revival on a new scale because of the Black death.

During the 19th Century the Scottish capital of Edinburgh was leading the way in medical advancements.
None more so than in the study of the anatomy of the human body, but this in turn lead to a severe shortage of corpses for teaching and research purposes.
But for Burke and Hare this was a money making opportunity..

The idea behind the Volkswagen, or โpeopleโs car,โ was initially conceived in the early 1930โs, before ultimately coming to fruition by the outbreak of the Second World War. Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer of Nazi Germany, commissioned a vehicle that would be affordable, practical, and most important of all, available to every member of society in the โGrossdeutschlandโ. The general production of the Volkswagen ultimately stalled during the Second World War, however, as the Third Reich was forced to mobilise its national industries in order to keep up with the demands of their military efforts.

The B-21 Raider is expected to fulfill the same role in protecting the United States from hostile nations. In a world of rapidly improving technology, people can only guess at the elements of the B-21 Raider that are being withheld from the public.
The true capabilities of the bomber may not be known for generations to come, but with the B-21 in serviceโ those generations can rest safe in the knowledge that their country is being protected.

Since the beginning of civilization, humans have been inventing tools and weapons. From flint axe and spear heads in the Stone Age to nuclear weapons in modern times, mankind has continually tried to improve and build new weapons that would give them an advantage over their enemies on the battlefield. The introduction of firearms marked the beginning of the most exciting chapter in the history of weapons. During this period, there were a lot of guns that were to be iconic of their era. But, on the other hand, there were more than enough guns that carried the title of the worst contraptions in history. This is the story of five of the top worst guns.

Although the use of a spy balloon in 2023 was considered startlingly primitive, these lighter-than-a feather sacks caused an entire โballoonomaniaโ when they first began being introduced in eighteenth century France. Pilots risked their lives to prove their creations could be used for flight, with Jean-Pierre Blanchard even throwing away his trousers and jacket to keep his balloon afloat as he and his friend crossed the English Channel airborne. Yet, it wasnโt long before these marvellous spectacles, once wondrous spheres of colour in the sky, would be given additional roles. Ones as innovative tools for destruction, terror and intelligence gathering. Wellโฆ occasionally, of course.

The horrific atrocities that took place in the Congo Free State are often compared to the Holocaust, with king Leopold II of Belgium being compared to the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Between 1885 and 1908, Leopold II personally ruled the Congo, in sub Saharan Africa, which was largely unexplored at this time, as only the coastal areas had been claimed by other European countries. He named it the โCongo Free State,โ which is rather ironic when you realise what went on there.
The local population was anything but free.
(1885-1908)

Everyone is familiar with the Hollywood version of medieval jousts. The handsome knight galloping towards his sworn enemy, lance steady and stern, while his ladyโs handkerchief gently sits next to his heart. But have you ever seen a joust that used boats instead of horses? Knights who practised hitting targets hung from masts in rivers instead of in training grounds? Watch how even some of the painted Maya, viking raiders or pious monks staved off their boredom. Through some truly odd ball games, they might leave you baffled and confused, and yet still have a part of you wanting to try them out yourself
