Les plus belles armures de plates jamais fabriquées furent produites après la généralisation des armes à feu, et les meilleurs armuriers faisaient la promotion de leur travail en tirant dessus et en y laissant la marque. La cavalerie lourde continua de décider des batailles pendant trois siècles après l'apparition du premier canon sur un champ de bataille européen. Le chevalier avait déjà été vaincu par des tisserands flamands et des paysans suisses avant même que la poudre ne devienne un enjeu, et il percevait un salaire depuis bien plus longtemps. Au Japon, les armes à feu arrivèrent en 1543 et la classe des samouraïs survécut jusqu'en 1876, finalement anéantie non par une balle, mais par une loi de conscription.
Il en résulte l'histoire de la façon dont la carte de l'Europe a perdu la plupart de ses couleurs, des raisons pour lesquelles la noblesse a survécu à cette transition en excellente santé, et des raisons pour lesquelles quiconque regarde aujourd'hui un drone à cinq cents dollars détruire un char d'assaut à dix millions de dollars répète une très vieille erreur avec une grande confiance.
Mots-clés: histoire militaire, poudre à canon, féodalité, Europe médiévale, fortification, formation de l'État, évolution technologique
