I will be telling you about the English Longbow, spurs, the blast furnace, and Plate Armor.

The English Longbow made the arrows shot stronger because the bow was longer. That meant that men and woman would have to pull back more on the bow. The impact that the long bow had on history was that a kingdom had stronger protection.

Spurs are made so that when you kicked a horse it would run or canter. The impact on history was that you could get your horse to go faster with one kick.

The blast furnace made it so that you could melt metal faster and make more metal things faster. The impact on history was that we could make more metal items a day.

Since the Longbow was invented, then plate armor was also invented. Plate armor was ten times as strong as normal armor. The impact on history was that people didn’t die or get injured as much in war.

My favorite topic was the plate armor. I love the clanking sound that the armor makes and how strong the armor is.

I love this weeks topics in history because they’re cool inventions.
