created the Airplane

created the Telegraph, he first way to ever send essentially a text message across the country.

Similar to in the United States, skilled workers secretly carried plans for building textile machinery. The first area to get some of those plans was BELGIUM, just across the canal from Great Britian. And consequently, it became the first to industrialize.

limited mostly to the west, where there was already coal and iron resources. Industrialism was hindered because Germany was not unified until 1871. After 1871, after unification, industrialization accelerated or sped up because of the vast network of railroads being constructed. Second in steel production to the United States. Germany and the United States both are becoming Economic Powerhouses during this time period.

French industrialization was slowed by political unrest, various revolutions.
