Although electricity was not "invented" during the Victorian Era, light bulbs were. Steam power led to the invention of railways, steam engines, and factories. The telegraph, telephone, phonograph, and postage stamp all improved communication during that period, while photography improved documentation. Antiseptics and anesthesia improved hospitals. The earliest cars were invented during the Victorian Era as well.
