The Invention of the Windmill

The windmill was invented in the late 12th century and

revolutionized the way people harnessed the power of the
wind. Before the windmill, people had to rely on manual
labor to perform tasks such as grinding grain or pumping
water. The windmill allowed for these tasks to be done
much more quickly and efficiently.

The invention of the windmill allowed for the development

of new technologies and industries. It allowed for the
mass production of goods, and the development of new
forms of energy. It also allowed for the development of
new forms of transportation, such as sailing ships.
