The word semaphore, the first was compiled as a coin, 1801. French inventor Chape, who invented the semaphore line.

During 1790-1795. At the height of the French Revolution, it was necessary to devise a quick and efficient, easily understandable way of communication. France was surrounded by enemies, as well as burdened with riots within some cities. France's advantage was the lack of cooperation that the hostile allied forces had, because of the poor lines of communication. In 1790, Chape brothers began to devise a communication system that would allow information to be transmitted as soon as possible. The first tool set on March 2, 1791 was a combination of black-and-white panels, watches, telescopes, and codebooks. The first message, transmitted in this way, was: "If you succeed, you will soon bask in glory". The message was transferred between Brulon and Prce at a distance of 16km.

The word semaphore was first rinted in English in 1816.

What were Americans concern about early 1800s
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Slavery

Explanation:The United States became a continental nation with the purchase of Louisiana from France in 1803 and the settlement of the lands beyond the Appalachian Mountains. Westward expansion fueled conflict with Native populations and led to their forced removal. By 1820, 2 million Americans lived west of the Appalachians, out of a total national population of 10 million. The regional cultures that had developed along the Atlantic Coast—New England, Middle Atlantic, Chesapeake, and Carolinas—were transplanted into the Old Northwest (Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin) and the Old Southwest (Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Tennessee, and Texas). But although Americans had begun to identify themselves as a nation, they were divided by sectional interests that deepened with rapid industrialization and the question of slavery.
