The invasion
of Poland gave rise to modern warfare that was literally powered by the
internal combustion engine. Blitzkrieg
(German, "lightning war" listen is an anglicised word describing
all-motorised force concentration of tanks, infantry, artillery, combat
engineers and air power, concentrating overwhelming force at high speed to
break through enemy lines, and, once the lines are broken, proceeding without
regard to its flank. Through constant motion, the blitzkrieg attempts to keep
its enemy off-balance, making it difficult to respond effectively at any given
point before the front has already moved on.
During the
interwar period, aircraft and tank technologies matured and were combined with
systematic application of the German tactics of infiltration and bypassing of
enemy strong points. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Western journalists
adopted the term blitzkrieg to describe this form of armoured warfare

Footage of
the Nazi airship catching fire, crashing and burning to the ground: This
original footage from the British Pathe archive shows impressive shots of the
Hindenburg flying overheaon on Thursday, May 6, 1937, flying over its landing
ground at Lakehurst, New Jersey, and then finally there is footage of the
famous crash. 13 out of 36 passengers died, whilst 22 out of 61 crew members
died, so many survived the disaster.

DISASTER AND
THE END OF THE AIRSHIP ERA
The
Hindenburg disaster marked the beginning of the end for travel by dirigible.
But airships were once a popular and luxurious way to travel.
DEAN
NICHOLAS | PUBLISHED IN HISTORY TODAY
On May 6th
1937, the German airship LZ 129 Hindenburg was destroyed in a fire whilst
attempting to dock at a station in New Jersey.
Theories about what exactly happened differ: at the time, it was thought to be an act of sabotage, but it is now believed that a spark, possibly caused by static build-up, ignited a fire that blazed through the hydrogen-filled craft. The ensuing inferno, which took the lives of 13 passengers, 22 crew, and one person on the ground, was captured on cine film and memorably narrated by the newsreader, Herbert Morrison ....

The wheel:
great inventions which changed history.
The wheel,
is one of the oldest inventions of humanity, and for sure one of the most
important. Contemporarily we couldn’t imagine a world without it, since it is
crucial for many things… but not only for vehicles, like cars or bicycles, but
also for example for the function of a watch or a merygoround.
The wheel
was first seen, on small clay tables discovered in Mesopotamia. These tables,
represent a car with wheels and are more than 5 thousand years old.
According to
archaeologists, the wheel, was invented in Mesopotamia over 6 thousand years
ago, but we don’t know who the inventor was.
Supposedly,
the first wheel was invented after the first human beings used cylindrical tree
trunks to move heavy things. Observing this, someone very intelligent, must
have thought that mauking a wooden circle, with an axis, like current wheel
barrels, it would be easier… and from then on, the first potters wheel, and
cars appeared.
Crafts, were
the first to use the wheel and it made it easier and faster for potters to make
their pots, thanks to the potters wheel.
Here, we can
see how two wheels and an axis, help this craftsman, endlessly.
Through
time, the wheel, was also used in transport. Animals didn’t have to carry heavy
weights on their backs, now, thanks to wheels they pulled the cars and moved a
lot more weight with less effort… and from then the wheel has been an essential
partner to human beings. Look look! The number of wheels we can see around us…
The truth is
that it’s such a cool invention, don’t you think?

From the
Himalayas in the north to the Nilgiris in the south - for a hundred years these
little trains have climbed through the clouds and into the wonderful world of
Indian hill railways.
The
Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is a line so close to the people that it flows
like a river through their lives. The relationship between the train and the
people is changing, however, as a new generation of Gurkhas populates these
hills, demanding an independent state and fighting for a new identity as they
journey into the modern Indian world.
