What age did Fulton boost American into?
The steamboat invented by Robert Fulton, called the "North River Steamboat" (commonly referred to as the Clermont), helped boost the economy in America in the early 19th century. The steamboat was launched in 1807, and it made its first successful voyage up the Hudson River from New York City to Albany in that same year. The steamboat revolutionized transportation and commerce in America, making it possible to travel upriver and reach previously inaccessible markets, which in turn led to increased trade and commerce. The widespread use of steamboats helped to spur economic growth and development in the country, and they played a significant role in the expansion of American industry and commerce in the decades following their introduction.
What did Robert Fulton do?
for creating the steam boat and submarine Even before the steam engine had success on rails, steam-powered ships were a reality. Various inventors had built working steam-powered boats as far back as 1783. In 1800, American inventor Robert Fulton built the Nautilus, the first functioning submarine. In 1803, he piloted a steam-powered ship up the river Seine in Paris. In 1807, a steamboat of Fulton's ran commercial passenger service on the Hudson River between Albany and New York City. Fulton quickly secured a monopoly on steamboats on the Hudson and ran a profitable business. His monopoly was eventually declared a violation of interstate trade. Fulton could not compete with other steamboats, and he went out of business. Fulton was a successful self-promoter and a capable engineer who improved and adapted the inventions of others. In the U.S., Robert Fulton is sometimes claimed to be the inventor of the steamboat, but that is not strictly true. Many inventors designed steamboats prior to and independently of Robert Fulton.
