What is a hand grenade?
Hand grenade is a small, usually manual device that is triggered or thrown on others to create the death, injury or destruction of property, usually with a short scope of the explosion. The first hand grenades were developed by Chinese in the 10th or 11th century and compared to today's grenade were simple under construction. The early Chinese grenade was only gunpowder wrapped in small containers of various materials that were illuminated and then thrown. Until the 15th century in China, it was the standard to pack gunpowers in cast iron and in this way produced not only grenades but also cannon balls. They normally had a fuse connected, so there were at least a few seconds between the time when the grenade or cannon ball was illuminated and at a time when it was thrown or started.
Europe has accepted some primitive forms of hand grenade within the 17th century. Small round grenades, the size of baseball, were probably first used in a revolution of 1688, while William of Orange tried to overthrow King Jakub II. ANDNglie and Scotland. The evidence suggests that these first European grenades were not regularly used and were not particularly accurate.

For example, Grenates can carry chemicals used for killing or calming rebels. Grenades of tear gases are quite common in many countries in extreme unrest.
Modern hand grenade is not lit by fuse lighting, but instead is inactive if its internalThe materials remain stable until a pin connected to a small metal ring is removed from the grenade. The mechanism is slightly different for those grenades that are lowered instead of thrown hands.
