Wheels are believed to have been invented almost 5500 years ago.
Ever imagined what the world would be like without wheels?
How would you go to school, work or even on a holiday? Bicycles, cars, steam engines and even planes, nothing would be possible without the wheels. Yes, horses and sledges would be there. But it would be a super slow and super rough ride.
Not only in transportation, but wheels are also a major component of the industrial revolution. Elevators, blinds, cranes, etc., all have some form of wheel hidden in them.
Now, on adding teeth to wheels, gears were invented. Clocks, grinders, car engines, bicycles and other complex machines work with the help of gears. So, basically, if wheels were never invented, we might still be living the prehistoric way.
