How does technology, both past and present, influence society today?​
valentina_108 [34]

Technolgy influenced many variables throughout time, such as imperial expansion, knowledge of the environment, better medical development, and many other things. If we didn't have the technological advancements that we did throughout the ages, the world would be very different from today. Many things could have gone astray and history would be very different. For example, if boats were never invented, immigration and exploration would be almost non-existent, and the Americas wouldn't have been discovered by Europe. Another thing that would have changed is international trade, trading between countries would be impossible without the use of boats unless the countries were connected by land.

Hope this helps :)
