Answer: James Watt / Thomas Newcomen

Explanation:

The two names that are most responsible for the use of steam in the industry. The original steam engine was modified in 1712 but was later refined by James Watt, who was credited with the invention. The invention was a revolution in traffic, and a steam engine, except on land, was also used to launch ships (steamboat).

Mentioned in 1712, Thomas Newcomen is the person who was responsible for the construction of the steam-pumped atmospheric pump. His invention worked for much of the eighteenth century but was not economical. Thanks to the technical refinement by James Watts, a revolution is about to occur in the industry.

Japan's seizure of Manchuria

Japan began its invasion of Manchuria in September, 1931 and completed its control by early 1932.

The "Anschluss" or annexation of Austria by Germany happened in March 1938.

The Soviets invaded Poland from the east after Germany did so from the west in September, 1939.

The answer about Mussolini is a decoy. It was Hitler and Nazi Germany that invaded and took over Czechoslovakia, in March, 1939.
