Answer:
The electoral college consists of 538 electors, who choose the president of the United States. These electors are sent from the states, in proportion to their population, and in all states except for Maine and Nebraska, the electors are bound to the candidate that obtains the plurality of votes in the state.
Some presidents have been elected despite having lost the popular vote.
An example from the 19th century is Rutherford B. Hayes, who lost the popular vote to his contender, Samuel J. Tilden, but still won because he got 20 more electoral votes.
An example from the 21st century is the most recent election: Donald Trump lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton, but won the electoral college (304 votes vs Clinton's 227 votes). In part this is because Trump won several crucial states by very small margins, for example, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Answer:
Boats of the Neolithic era were very simple. They were essentially rafts, made of easy to find materials such as wood.
In the Neolithic, there were many cultures that built boats, and sailed across the sea, but mostly for relatively short distances. Interoceanic navigation was essentially null.
Boats of the modern era have evolved a lot. From sailing boats, to large rowing boats like the Viking longships, to mechanical boats of the modern era. This evolution is to be expected since boats are among the first human inventions in history, dating back to thousands of years before the Neolithic Revolution.
