    Mexico was forced to take fifteen million dollars from the US as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo after the Mexican American War. Mexico did get paid for the land that was taken, although they didn't really want to accept any money from the US.

    There were cannons in late medieval Europe. They were famously used in the 100 year war (although for some reason where left out in the Netflix movie "the King", shame on them), in the assault on Constantinople by the Osmanians and several other occasions. During that period armours like the ones shown here would be worn a lot (although I don't think the armours themselves are that historically accurate, but I didn't bother putting more research into this)

    The reason that they were able to take Constantinople with the large walls was because the ottomans invented cannons. When I first heard it I was shook because I didn't know they invented canons that early.

      Ethiopia never even officially surrendered to Italy.Ethiopian rebels were supplied by the British and maintained control of some of Ethiopia under the command of Haile Selassie, and later on fought with the British once they invaded Italian east Africa.

    One of the main reasons Mehmed II was able to take Constantinople was because of massively improved artillery in the form of giant bombards... so the cannonball statement isn't totally inaccurate.

    Constantinople (Istanbul) was conquered in 1453 so there were cannons. In fact, Ottomans used the most powerful cannon ever made in order to brake the great walls of Constantinople.
