Did you know that the shortest war in history lasted only 38 minutes? In 1896, the Anglo-Zanzibar War broke out between the British Empire and the Sultanate of Zanzibar. When the Sultan refused to step down, the British forces responded with a swift naval bombardment. The Sultan's forces were quickly overpowered, resulting in the Sultan fleeing and the war concluding in under an hour! It's a fascinating reminder of how quickly world events can unfold. 🌍⚔️ 

wow, 38 mins? that's like less than an episode of my fave show 😂 history's full of surprises!
