The Anglo-Zanzibar War of 1896, which lasted only 38 minutes, was the shortest war in recorded history. When Sultan Hamad died in 1896, his nephew Khalid Bin Barghash seized the throne without British permission. The British Empire gave him one hour to surrender, but he refused. The British Navy then launched a bombardment that destroyed the entire palace and ended Khalid's reign within 38 minutes, demonstrating how quickly political power can be transferred through military intervention.
