Whats with the Chinese launching fireworks on their New Years?
Because of the numerous evil spirits in China, fireworks are set off on Chinese New Years as yet another method of warding them off. Fireworks and gunpowder were actually discovered in China. In spite of having found this world changing technology, it never occurred to the Chinese to use it to keep the unwanted Mongolian immigrants out. Instead, the Chinese built a four thousand mile long fence along their border in order to stop the Mongolians from taking all the good jobs in China.
