@Bretrick All of those wind driven towers to power pumps and small-scale electricity generation are not windmills.
A windmill is a machine operated by the force of wind acting on vanes or sails to mill grain.

What you say may be true on little European islands but on the massive continent of Australia they are called WINDMILLS and they pump water or generate electricity…
It used be a car game when my kids were little - they would play spot the windmill.

I’ve seen windmills all through Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and North America. This one is just about within eyeshot of my kitchen window. Slottsmöllan:

‘…this Grade I listed windmill was built in 1830 with five sails.
Damaged in a storm in 1890, the mill was repaired using eight sails…’

Is still standing?
Now fully restored the windmill is an award-winning visitor centre.

You are correct in what you say.
The true name of this apparatus is a Windpump.
Southern Cross has called them windmills from the day of their inception.
