Timeline

Although I said that the next entry would be about the French army, I noted that my timeline is out of alignment with itself. So here is the proper timeline:


  • 1837- Charles Babage, living in in French, designed his second so called "computing engine", The Analytically Engine. 



  • 1838- Louis-Mathieu Mole heleped to fund Babage's work, an act that lad to his downfall as prime minister of the Monarchy of France.



  • 1848- After some rough political times in French, a new republic was founded. Napoleon III adopted Babage and his work. The Engine was done at this stage and Babage was working on a new smaller model, however Le Motor de La Pensee brought about the creation of the first Autometa since De Vinci's days. 

  • 1851- The Crystal Palace great exhibitionism, where the marvels of technology were introduced. By this point all major nations, aside from the British Empire, had a Thinking Engine. At the exhibition Queen Victoria ordered the scientific establishment at Oxford to esquire an Engine and research it. 
  • 1853- The British send a battleship into the Black sea, the French reinforce their fortifications in the Holly Land while the Russians send a fleet to the Mediterranean coast. The Crimean war has began and it wont be over soon.
