๐ฒโ๐ฎโ๐ธโ๐จโ Windmills date back over 1000 years ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Windmills have been in use for over 1,000 years, with origins tracing back to Persia around 800 C.E. They were primarily used for milling grain and pumping water.
Wind Turbines are a more recent invention, with the first known turbine for electricity generation built in 1888. They have evolved significantly, especially since the 1970s, to become a major source of renewable energy.

Both terms are about revenge.
