The Chinese invented fireworks somewhere around 960 and 1279 AD. They shot off fireworks to ward off evil spirits and used them during celebrations, like the Emperorâs birthdays and Chinese holidays. Fireworks were first used to celebrate independence in the United States on July 8, 1776. They were used in England to celebrate the birthdays of kings and queens. The fireworks were fired in America to celebrate the âdeathâ of royalty and their power over the U.S. Fireworks were used to celebrate our independence each July 4th but not in an official way until July 4 was declared a federal holiday in 1941.
It was this pattern that fueled the Great Fire of London in 1666, which wiped out 80% of the city. That disaster led to the London Building Act of 1667, the first to provide for surveyors to enforce its regulations. It laid down that all houses were to be built in brick or stone.The number of storeys and width of walls were carefully specified. Streets should be wide enough to act as a fire break.hese issues were tackled in a set of building regulations usually dated to 1189, and certainly earlier than 1216. The greatest hazard was fire. After a major fire in 1212, thatched roofs were banned in London by the city's first mayor, Henry Fitzailwin.
