Gunpowder was created by Huo Yao and first used as fireworks and grenades. Prior to the invention, people would often use it for hunting on hot days and when the vegetables were scarce. They would pack the gun powder into a piece of paper and when they saw and animal from in range they would throw it and even if the grenade didnt reach the animal it would still make and explosion and kill the animal.Since grenades were invented in the Tang dynasty the people were able to save food prior to the grenades for killings and they were also able to use the fur from the animals as clothing. Fireworks were as a sign of a celebration but also beauty. It was a sign of beauty because when the fireworks went off they would have fascinating colors in them and the colors would light up the sky.
Gunpowder has really changed peoples lives in many ways. For example the grenades would help for food, but they would also help the emperor for land ruling because if they won the battles they gained land all thanks to the gunpowder killing the other army. So the gunpowder would broaden the dynasty land. Fireworks changed the peoples lives because before they only had lights and flag for celebration but now they have the fireworks to fire into the sky to make the celebrations bigger and better. As a result of the gunpowder in the society today it is now used for the same reasons but many more.
