For example, in the mid-1800s, photography was invented; the telegraph was also invented, and while we don't use it today, it led to radio and even the internet. Movies were invented in the late 1800s; so was the telephone; the automobile and the tyre; the fountain pen; and recorded music.
The inventions and innovations of the mid-19th century helped fuel both the economies of the North and South. The manufacturing centers of the North could produce more textiles more easily and efficiently with the technologies while the plantations of the South could produce more cotton with agricultural innovations. Inventions such as the steam engine improved shipping of goods by land and sea.
Others fueled the economic revolution and transformed manufacturing, transportation, and communication.
