Ever since human beings had collectives, they have begun to fight. Especially after the great increase in human labor power, a lot of surplus products gradually appeared, so the earliest private property appeared. In the past, everything was everyone's and tribal, but now that things have become one person's, these rich people have to make a lot of regulations and measures to protect their property.
The most important step in the process of protecting one's private property is war. Therefore, the history of mankind is basically a history of war, and at the same time, human progress is also progress that occurs in continuous wars. In order to win the war, there is already hope for the potential wealth that will come after the victory of the war. Many people are willing to give everything, even their lives, for war.
Many times, because the two sides of the war are relatively strong and the strength is similar, there will be a war with a relatively long duration of war. For example, the war between Britain and France lasted for more than a hundred years. And decades of war abound. For example, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in our country lasted for fourteen years.
At the same time, the scale of war is also expanding, especially after modern industrialization, more labor force has been released. Only a small number of people are needed to support a large number of armies for combat. For example, in the two world wars we know, Europe, with a population of only more than 300 million people, the army can reach more than 30 million, which is a terrible mobilization ability.
Similarly, the history of mankind has been very long, and there have been some strange wars, and the shortest war now on record lasts only forty-five minutes. Now a lesson lasts forty or fifty minutes, which means that in the last lesson, a war is over.
The war took place between Britain and Zanzibar, a small Island in Sangbar that was then sworn in by both Britain and Germany in 1896. Both countries were relatively powerful, so the prince of the island was not in a hurry to fall to that side. However, soon after the death of the former prince, the newly succeeded prince directly declared himself independent and did not belong to any country.
The British were furious when they found out, so they sent nearby troops directly to attack the area. The prince did not show weakness and formed an army of two thousand men to prepare to resist, but after forty-five minutes, due to the excessive casualties, he surrendered. In the whole war, handsome only one person was injured, and he was also injured by his own people.
At that time, there was also a theory that the war actually lasted only thirty-eight minutes before the enemy surrendered to Britain. Although the military force was over, the prince knew after 7 minutes that the army had surrendered, and he chose to surrender.
