Walking was the first common way of transportation. This form of transportation is the oldest method of getting from one place to another that is still current used today. Walking became outdated when people decided that animals would be a more efficient way to move around. Riding horses, camels, and donkeys created an advancement in society for faster transporation on land. The use of sailboats and steamboats were shortly invented after to help transport products over water. Afterwards, trains were created to help transport products over land. Sailboats and trains started a new era with trade and helping the economy. Countries were now able to get and give necessary resources in a shorter time period. These inventions helped speed things up, but are relatively slow compared to the inventions we have seen in current time.
