Big country, big army, big contributions, China is one of the countries with a vast culture that involves a lot of topics, art, literature, but one of the most interesting is, military, and I’m not only talking about Kun-fu or Mulan, I’m making reference to all those military equipment and tactics that have been a contribution from China’s army. One of the most known is Sun-Tzu’s book The art of war (5th century BCE), this literature piece is a must-read among the armies all around the world; arrows, crossbows, and gunpowder bombs were also a big contribution from the Chinese army. If we talk about army textile, the Chinese people used to develop their armors based on the lethality development of the weapons used in war, they started wearing army textiles made from tiger skin, and later on, they started to mix leather mixed with metals to harden their uniforms.
