In Paris, they wanted to use steam to solve the floodings. They tried to steal the design by ordering two of them and trying to build it but bigger. They also wanted to improve the design. But they failed because there wasn’t the free flow of ideas because of the monarchy of Louis 14. New businesses of the industrial rev were solide and where to expend.
