You know, the first Molotov Cocktails were used by the Finns when the Soviets invaded their country (they named it after the USSR foreign minister Vyacheslav Molotov as they believed the war was because of him)

I thought it was first invented by the nationalists in the Spanish Civil War?

It's the Soviet-Finnish war (the Winter War or something) as far as I'm concerned. It happened in the late 1930's. The Soviets had heavily losses there. Only the weight of numbers allowed them to prevail.

Nobody knows the correct ingredients, though. well, I came across a book called Forts and Fortresses in our school library and here's what it said (Note: I acknowledge what Archaix said, it's just a theory): Possible formula: pitch, sulphur tow, frankincense & pineweed sawdust, placed in pots in ballistas, then ignited and hurled towards the target. Can also be wrapped around the heads of fire-arrows. Theory nr. 2: Use a tube for projecting a flame, the principal constituent was naphtha or some other flammable chemical derived from fossil oils that occur naturally in the Mid-East. |
