There may be other answers Note: The Maxim Gun, the first machine gun, saw much use in Africa with the British, long before the First World War - having been invented in 1884 and first used by British forces in Matabeleland in what was known as The First Matabele War, in 1893 - 94. As Hilaire Belloc wrote in "The Modern Traveller" (published 1898) "Whatever happens we have got
The Maxim Gun, and they have not."
