The hictory of transport is very long, from the beginnings with simpified small
ships up to present times with all modern ways of travelling. In the beginnings,
walking was the only way to travel distances, besides animals used for carrying
loads. It was all very primitive up to 3500 BC, when the first wheel was invented
and strongly influnced the development of vehicles in the following years.
At the beginning, people used carriages for travelling because there were no
steam engines or any other inventions from the 18th and 19th century. Carriages
were the fist land transport vehicles pulled by animals, usually horses or oxen.
These first carriages were built for comfort of the passengers in the firt place, so
they were the symbol of the priveleged class of society or nobility.

The most important invention of The First Industrial revolution was the steam
engine in the second part of the 18th century. It had the enormous impact on the
development of mankind, but it was the announcement od the Second Industrial
