The right order is Cartography -> Navigational Compass -> Photography -> Internet.
Cartography - The first examples of maps used in Cartography dates back to the human pre-history. The oldest recorded route was found in Anatolia and was dated 6100-6300 BC, showing buildings and a volcano.
Navigational Compass - The first known compass was made with Lodestone, a black magnetized iron ore, during the 12th century. Chinese, European and Arab mariners used a different mechanism to make the magnetic phenomenon possible, but eventually, the lodestone was used to magnetize a needle that was floated on a small piece of wood in a small container of water.
Photography - The modern photography was established during the 19th century and was only used in a consistent manner by geographers by the end of that century.
Internet - The most recent milestone was the internet that came after the development of electronic computers in the 1950s.

Answer:
William "Boss" Tweed ran the Democratic party machine in 19th century New York City called Tammany Hall and was eventually convicted of corruption and embezzlement of government funds.
Tweed and his accomplices committed about $30 million to $200 million in fraud. It was only after a series of articles in the New York Times in 1871 that these practices came to an end. Tweed was indicted and in 1873 he was sentenced to an initial 12 years in prison. After serving one year, he was released but was immediately arrested again. A civil suit followed, but on December 4, 1875, Tweed managed to escape. He was eventually detained in Spain by the authorities there and extradited to the US where he would remain in prison until his death two years later.
