The History of War

…As it was explained to Jen and I in a rather "Mia friendly" manner. Well done Roger!

The History of War.
(insert own hand gestures where appropriate.)

• Man made
• Man discovers tools a la "2001 A Space Odyssey"
• Bludgeoning war ensues
• Armistice declared by two knackered survivors.
• Man discovers sharp metal sticks.
• Lots of little wars with big long sharp metal things.
• Wars end with discovery of twangy flying pointy sticks.
• Gunpowder discovered after bizzare manure explosion.
• Big wars with scary flying things
• Man discovers how to make flying things explode too.
• Huge war with everyone using flying explodey things.
• Man discovers that big firing things can be put on floaty boats and big metal birdy planes.
• Break for tea, treaties and bankruptcy.
• Even bigger wars end with small mighty-bangy thingies.
• Lots are built. They're just used on really really big fields to show off.
• Peace breaks out.

Yay! now why didn't I do history?!
