Sugar
Sugar is a sweet-tasting carbohydrate, which can be differentiated in terms of being a simple sugar or a compound sugar. Sugar itself can be found from multiple sources, such as sugarcanes, malting grain, sugar beets, and milk, which range themselves into different varieties.[1]
History
In the Renaissance era, sugar was collected by both the Italian Assassins and Templars in Rome and used to craft smoke bombs, along with gunpowder. Sugar was also a component to brew beer, along with wheat.[2]
During the Golden Age of Piracy, sugar was a major commodity, such as being used as a trading resource,[3][4] and for creating byproducts for trade, such as rum.[5] At the time, Saint-Domingue was seen as the major sugar capital in the trading world.[6]
During the French Revolution, in 1793, the College of the Four Nations had converted its chapel into a sugar storage for France's privileged citizens.[7]
