In the 1700s, James Watt caused a revolution in transportation<em> by improving steam engine technology.</em>
He was a Scottish inventor and mechanical engineer. He made improvements on Thomas Newcomen's steam engine that was patented in 1698 and widely in use at the time of Watt's birth ( 1736).
It all started when Watt was given a model Newcomen engine to repair. He realized it was very inefficient and he began to find ways to improve its performance. He designed a separating condensing chamber for the engine to avoid huge losses of steam. He patented his improvements in 1769.
A unit of measurement of electrical and mechanical power -<em> the watt</em> - is named in his honor.

Caudillo is a term derived from the Spanish word Capitellum meaning Small Head ( head of an irregular ruled political territory). In the Latin American context, this term was used for the Military Leaders, who challenged the authority of the Spanish government. Therefore, these Caudillos or the strong man gave birth to a system called Caudillismo (a system of political-social domination under the leadership of a strong man). They rose after the Independence War from Spain in the 19th century in Latin America.
