I had to go for the Wheel/Transportation. It has lead many nations to victory in war and built up many nations in peace. The wheel has been a part of life in religions and philosophy. Most of all it helps you to think outside the Box wink.gif

I'd probably go with fire (not an invention really, maybe fire producing devices would be more appropriate), it leads to heat, metal smithing, light, and cooking, plus a bunch of other things.

A sharpened stick (and other forms of primitive weapons) would be up there as well.

heating/cooling. It not only allows gives us comfort, but it allows us to eat pretty much any type of food whenever we want (keeping us healthier)

No....lol
Transportation or Communication.
How would be be a settled unity as a world without any form of communication or transportation?

That would stricken war to land based fighting.
Not to mention how effective communication is to call in air strikes and create new rally points for spread out forces.

Use your head dude.
fuck a computer.

It makes things easier.... without them, this world is not impossible.

Not to mention, China is the leading manufacturer with technology... i.e televisions / mp3 devices ect ect.
How would America become as technologically advanced as the more prospering countries without transportation to get the techology here or communication to put great minds together to develop new ideas?


Sums up what I believed. However I would not like to live without any of those things.

Transportation is currently the most useful, but in the future it will be communication. One day there will be no need for transportation; when distance and energy is not a factor in the equation.

Since light has been invented it has allowed us to work more, longer and later. It has even opened new fields that we couldnt have explored without it. Without the sun nothing would exist. Without the lightbulb, noone would've deveopled electricty production on a grand scale.
