Which country invented the toilet

There is another theory about the invention of the "tiger son", which is also related to the emperor. Legend has it that in the Western Han Dynasty, the "flying general" Li Guang shot the dead crouching tiger, and let people cast a copper drowning device in the shape of a tiger, and put the urine in it, expressing his contempt for the tiger, which is the origin of the name of "Huzi". The emperor of the Tang Dynasty changed this disrespectful term to "beast" or "horse" because of the name "Li Hu" among his ancestors, and then commonly known as "toilet" and "urinal".

The first detailed written record of the toilet was the "wooden horse" in Ouyang Xiu's "Guitianlu II" in the Northern Song Dynasty, which is explained as "wooden toilet" in the "Ciyuan". The toilet bowl used by the ancient Chinese folk was a round wooden barrel with a lid, which was coated with tung oil or fine waterproof vermilion lacquer.

In 1596, the English aristocrat John 6 1 Harrington invented the first practical toilet - a wooden seat with a cistern and flush valve.

In 1778, the British inventor Joseph 6 1 Bramme improved the design of the flush toilet, using such as a three-ball valve to control the flow of water in the tank, and a U-shaped elbow.

In the 19th century, the British government enacted a law requiring every house to be fitted with a proper sewage system, and toilets began to improve dramatically.

In 1861, Thomas 6 1 Klepa, a British plumber, invented an advanced water-saving flushing system, and waste discharge began to enter the modern period.

In 1885, Thomas 6 1 Tauverford patented the first all-ceramic toilet in the United Kingdom, and dozens of improvements have been granted every year since.

In Shanghai in the 30s of the 20th century, when the morning light first appeared, many people would rub their sleepy eyes, carry the toilet, and walk out of the house one after another, and then line up in front of a public faucet.

In the sixties of the 20th century, flush toilets began to prevail in Europe and the United States, and later spread to Japan, South Korea and other Asian countries.

In the early 80s, it was only seen in a high-end hotel in Beijing, but now it is even used in toilets in Beijing.
