Which country was the first to carry out aerial bombardment?

Actually the very first was from an uamanned balloon by the Austrians against Venice in 1849 cheeky.

Incorrect. Ariel bombardment can go back to the mid-evil days of catapults. The first modern day was via balloons in1849 during the First Italian war of Independence. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_bombing_of_cities

Ron Gosling, lol I guess

I believe they did mean planes at any rate I was wrong I always thought it was Germany back to history class

So you mean anything in air is an Ariel bombardment. That then means arrows spears back to cavemen.

I agree with spencer.... used unmanned balloons... so maybe make question clearer ( if meaning by plane )

Missed it

Agh🐓

Italy! Never knew that!

How did this get past the reviewers?

Answer was too brief, surely there is more info than this.

Se dice que el primer ataque aéreo fue en la revolución mexicana de 1910. Y el aviador Emilio Carranza

Qualification is needed: What is regarded as a bomb or bombardment? What qualifies as aerial?

I agree with spencer because I googled the answer when I got it wrong you learn from this quiz though which is why I do it one day I’ll get 10 out of 10

Gery Tillmanns, thats a good way of looking at it. they needed to be more specific.

Wrong. Ancient Hindustan is the correct answer. "Gurkha flying in his swift and powerful Vimana hurled against the three cities of the Vrishis and Andhakas a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe. An incandescent column of smoke and fire, as brilliant as ten thousands suns, rose in all its splendour. It was the unknown weapon, the Iron Thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis and Andhakas." Now, will there be any other contributions?

I think the Irish dropped potatoes very early on.
