@everyone Daily Question 🔖
There were multiple examples of basic steam engines from the Roman Empire. More often than not they were for nothing more than a party trick. If someone decided to put that engine on a wheel or a mill, how would Rome change?
The industrial revolution would happen obv
Kek
Rome wouldve fallen even faster
I don't think their engines were strong enough for anything major
Wouldn't because slavery prevented the necessary economic pressures that lead to industrialisation
Send pfp rico
Joe, they would've steamrolled right through Scotland.
Large plantations lead to significant stakeholders in cheap human labour not expensive high investment labour saving devices.
Same as the American south
The engine that the Romans would have wouldn't be strong enough for anything drastic
what about in the roman cities?
Also they didn't have good enough metallurgy to do a proper industrialisation
they could have devolped better metallurgy
The urban patricians had plantations
They could have
But didn't
Possibly
the demand created by a steam engine would have driven better metalurgy
Not really
Steam locomotives+road
farming advances would be necessary?
