Fundementally its quite simple, and over engineering was the philosiphy of victorian engineers.
The first use of steam power was over 2000 years ago. It was a simple devise that used steam to make movement. Steam engines have been around since the 1600s.
A steam engine is an external combustion engine. As the steam engine combusts outside of the engine itself.
A steam shovel is primarily classified as a type of crane, which is a compound machine that incorporates several simple machines. The key simple machines involved are the lever (used in the boom and arm) and the wheel and axle (used in the tracks for movement). The steam engine itself also functions as a machine that converts steam pressure into mechanical work, allowing the steam shovel to perform its digging and lifting tasks efficiently.
A rotary steam engine was a fire engine basically
Steam is created in a steam engine by heating water in a boiler until it turns into steam. The steam then builds up pressure, which is used to power the engine and drive machinery.
noun: an engine worked by steam, typically one in which a sliding piston in a cylinder is moved by the expansive action of the steam generated in a boiler.A steam engine is an external combustion engine. As the steam engine combusts outside of the engine itself.
the steam engine was improved in 1769.

Steam
Steam in a steam engine is made by heating water in a boiler until it turns into steam. The steam is then directed into a cylinder where it pushes a piston, creating mechanical energy that powers the engine.
