AlexandraWidomskagp1...
The ability to transport goods has always proved to be a great advantage. England and the Vikings used the water. Railroads provide the same advantage, 1 driver can drive tons of goods, food, weapons, etc. This provides a great advantage over wagons and what not where 1 person can't take much more than what they need let alone providing for others.
