The first person to harness the power of steam was the Greek scientist Heron of Alexandria in the first century A.D. He developed several devices that were operated by water, steam, or compressed air, including a fountain, a fire engine, and the steam engine. The steam engine was significantly improved in 1711 by Englishman Thomas Newcomen (1663-1729), who created a machine that used steam to pump water. The Scottish inventor James Watt (1736-1819) substantially improved on Newcomen's model and patented (received exclusive rights to make, use, and sell) his own steam engine in 1769.

How did the experience with kings shape Romans' attitudes toward their republic?
The last king was a tyrant. This led to a rebellion which overthrew him and did away with the monarchy. The republic was seen as a return to liberty and a measure to prevent the re-occurrence of tyranny was introduced. This was the creation of two annually elected consuls as heads of the city and the army. Having two men in charge meant that they would counterbalance each other. The short term of office was meant to prevent power becoming concentrated in the hands of one or a few men. The worst accusation against someone was that of trying to become a King. Two men were executed because of such accusation and one man who ordered one of the execution was seen as a hero of liberty.
