Bone meal was a widely used fertilizer, otherwise there would not have been much available.

Waterloo was the first battle where this was subsequently recorded in the books.

Animals have bones, too

Do you think people had a lot of animals at that time? Belgium is now a fairly prosperous country, in those days it was different. My grandparents were farmers, living was hard then

Those get boiled into broth for eating

Yes, horse bones were also used. Any bones they could get their hands on.

I've got nothing left but my bones.

(bone grinders come by)

FUCK

Canon fodder helping the economy, what else is new?

Build shitty BMPs and send them to Ukraine: Increase GDP.
Fill said shitty BMPs with people beforehand: Increase GDP per capita.

Gnarly.
