[quote=GUEST26932,277849]"Marco Molo did come to China. He brought the gunpowder to the West. In China, the gunpowder was only used for making fireworks. When Marco Polo brought it to the West, gunpowder was used to fuel the Cannon. The western countries used the cannon to bomb China in 1840s. The four discoveries including gunpowder boost the development of the western world. " Obviously you don't know much about history. Gunpowder was not ONLY used to make fireworks. As early as 904 the chinese were using gunpowder as incendiary projectiles called 'flying fires' (fei-huo). The chinese also used gunpowder for cannons, guns and explosives long before Marco Polo was born.[/quote]
