Considering that China created the first 'true' rockets during the Mongol war everyone has actually been stealing from them.

They were very creative with killing.

Cool, back on the crackpot list again.

 

Von Braun was not a Nazi? Perhaps I’m mistaken... again. Was V2 American?

 

Oh side note, I had no idea they had cannons and grenades

 

They were quite resourceful at using black powder for more than making sparklers and noisemakers.
