Engineering is the further development of abstract technical thinking. which allows men to plan what they will (or what they can) build, without actually having to put all the effort of building it. Thanks to it, monumental structures like the Aqueduct become possible - a system of arches spanning tens (sometimes hundreds) of kilometers, to connect a city to a source of water. And the first true engine of war - the Catapult, rolls onto the battlefield.

Quote
| - One man's 'magic' is another man's engineering.
- Normal people ... believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.

| - Engineering is the further development of abstract technical thinking. which allows men to plan what they will (or what they can) build, without actually having to put all the effort of building it. Thanks to it, monumental structures like the Aqueduct become possible - a system of arches spanning tens (sometimes hundreds) of kilometers, to connect a city to a source of water. And the first true engine of war - the Catapult, rolls onto the battlefield. Of course, this is only the beginning - future generations will apply new meanings to the word, employing the same principle, and ushering in a whole new age of technical advancement.
