What is cannons range?

The range of a cannon varies widely depending on its type, caliber, and design. For instance, traditional field cannons used in the 18th and 19th centuries typically had a range of about 1,500 to 2,000 yards. Modern artillery pieces, like howitzers, can achieve ranges of 15 to 30 kilometers (9 to 19 miles) or more, especially with advanced munitions. Factors such as elevation, charge, and projectile type also significantly influence the effective range of a cannon.
