|with improved metalworking, increased firing range and durability over early Chinese and Middle Eastern guns
* invented in 9th century in China, called "fire medicine"
|having originated in China, European gunpowder was brought there by the Portuguese in the 15th century
* had limited use under Song Dynasty as "incendiary projectiles" but not adapted for common military use and not for cannon or guns
* Medieval Islam acquired recipes which included saltpeter, which they called "Chinese snow"; having already employed naptha (petroleum-based) as an incendiary
* Mongol warfare included use of gunpowder, especially in conquest of China, and possibly in attacks on Europe, where it was likely introduced
* see Gunpowder empires for Islamic empires that made extensive use of muskets and cannon
* Europeans applied it to small arms and cannon, and it was instrumental in bringing an end to calvary supremacy of European knights (see the [https://school4schools.com/wiki/index.php?title=US_History_timeline_%26_concept_chart:_16th-18th_centuries_(to_1754)_British-American_colonies#Thirty_Years_War.2C_1618-1648 Thirty Years War])
