<span>Robert Fulton<span> built the first useful steamboat with a Watt steam engine. In 1807, he tested the Clermont. His steamboat helped speed up industrialization. The Clermont’s success increased interest in canal and river transport. The majority of Americans did not agree of the effectiveness of steam power until 1825, when the Erie Canal opened for boats to travel from the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes. New York City became an important port. Goods from this port could reach Buffalo, New York, in two fewer weeks and 95 percent less cost than before. The success of the Erie Canal began a wave of canal building. By 1840, the United States was home to 3,326 miles of canals.

The advantage of speedboats were their speed and cost.
At the time, they were the fastest way to travel canals, rivers, even oceans.
Steamboats were also less expensive to use and faster to travel.

Answer:
Their speed and cost</span></span>

The correct answer is: "people should hold their governments accountable".

The Enlighment movement emerged in Europe and was constituted by philosophers that promoted Reason and the scientific method over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in monarchs or rulers "appointed by God". The resulting states that emerged based on the principles of this movement, enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history, and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.

Such Enlightment principles were transferred to the American colonies, where the population claimed for political representation rather than being governed by foreigners that were appointed by a foreign king. Such claims were ignored and the colonies, influenced by the new democratic principles, started several revolutionary movements for independence aiming to establish new independent states based on the Enlightment principles like in Europe. <u>States where people elect governors and have the power to remove them if they do their job badly and, hence, those governors are accountable to their citizens.  </u>

The highest classes such as the Pharaoh himself and his loyal and royal friends. This was because they had enough money to build pyramids and organize burial rituals and thus brag of their wealth even in death.
