As an example ship-building has seen centuries worth of advancement since the creation of humanity. Modern glass-making was invented in [[atlas:​Theodova]]. [[atlas:​Turan]] has seen advancements in mathematics and ship-building,​ including the first [[wp>​Caravel]] ship design. [[atlas:​Kingdom of Dakar]] has advanced metallurgy and [[atlas:​Irill]] has developed new banking and financial resources.

 +One question that always comes up is the advent of guns and gunpowder. Gunpowder has been invented and the first [[wp>​fire-lance]] have seen action on the battlefield in [[atlas:​Elysian]]. The first bombard was developed and deployed on 483 AH and the first hand cannon was seen in 558 AH. Both of these technologies have been slowed by the relative ease of magic to provide the same destructive capabilities. Destroying things with magic is the easiest use of the craft.
