19th Century Inventions

1800–1809

The 19th century started out a bit slowly, with the first
decade seeing the invention of the Jacquard loom, the
battery, and gas lighting. The inventor of the battery,
Count Alessandro Volta, gave his name to the way
battery power is measured—volts.

1810s
A small but important invention started off the decade
of the teens—the tin can. Things got bigger after that,
with the invention of the steam locomotive in 1814,
which would make a major impact on travel and
commerce throughout the rest of the century and
beyond. The first photograph was taken by the camera
obscura, which was set in a window. It took eight hours
to take a photo. The soda fountain, a favorite for all,
made its debut at the end of this decade, along with the
stethoscope.
1820s
The Mackintosh, also known as the raincoat, was
invented in a place where it was constantly needed—
Scotland—and named after its inventor, Charles
Mackintosh. This decade produced lots more
inventions: toy balloons, matches, Portland cement, and
the electromagnet. The typewriter made its debut at the
end of the decade, along with Braille printing for the
blind, named after its inventor, Louis Braille.
1830s

The 1830s saw the invention of one of the most

important items of the century: the sewing machine, this
one by Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier. Also of
great importance to agriculture and commerce were the
reaper and the corn planter. Samuel Morse invented the
telegraph and Morse code, Samuel Colt made the first
revolver, and Charles Goodyear invented rubber
vulcanization.

There's more: Bicycles, Daguerreotype photography,

propellors, wrenches, postage stamps, and platform
scales all made their first appearance in the 1830s.

1840s
Elias Howe was the first American to invent a sewing
machine in this decade, which also saw the first
vulcanized rubber pneumatic tire, the first grain
elevator, and the first stapler. Anesthesia and antiseptics
date to this decade, as does the first dentist's chair.
 1850s
Isaac Singer invented another sewing machine in this
decade, and this would be the one that would become a
household name in the years to come. A second major
invention: the Pullman train sleeping car, named after
its inventor, George Pullman. Louis Pasteur developed
pasteurization, a momentous scientific advance.

1860s

In the 1860s the United States was engulfed in the Civil

War, but inventions and advances continued apace. In
this decade of war Richard Gatling patented his
machine gun, named after him, Alfred Nobel invented
dynamite, and Robert Whitehead invented the torpedo.

George Westinghouse invented air brakes, and tungsten

steel was first made.

1870s
Ward's Catalog made its first appearance in the 1870s,
along with several major inventions: Alexander
Graham Bell patented the telephone, Thomas
Edison invented the phonograph and the lightbulb, and
the first-ever movie was made.

1880s

In the 1880s, there were hints of things to come in the

early 20th century: Karl Benz invented the first car that
was powered by an internal combustion engine, and
Gottlieb Daimler made the first motorcycle with a
gasoline engine.

Photographic film, rayon, fountain pens, cash registers

and yes, toilet paper, were invented in the 1880s.

In the treat department, one of the greatest inventions of

all time: John Pemberton debuted Coca-Cola in 1886.

1890s

The last decade of the 19th century witnessed the

invention of the escalator, the zipper, the Dewar
(vacuum) flask, the motor-driven vacuum cleaner, and
the roller coaster.

Rudolf Diesel invented, yes, the diesel engine, and in

1895 a motion picture was shown to an audience of
more than one person for the first time.
Racial Discrimination
Before………..
Filipinos as inferior beings who were infinitely undeserving of the rights and privileges that the
white Spaniards enjoyed. Spaniards called the brown-skinned and flat-nosed Filipinos “Indios”
(Indians), in retaliation, the Filipinos dubbed their pale-complexioned detractors with the
disparaging term “bangus” (milkfish).

After……
Racial discrimination is when a person is treated less favourably than another person in a similar
situation because of their race, colour, descent, national or ethnic origin or immigrant status.
