Discovery of Black Powder

Discovery, Scientific

Osiri alchemists discover the mix of sulfur, charcoal, and potassium nitrate that creates a highly volatile destructive force known as black powder. From there, the engineers of Osir began working on how to weaponize the discovery, creating firearms. Though the inventions were slow to spread across the country, let alone the world, the invention marks a massive shift in the way people thought about war.
