In my opinion the most important invention ever to be invented was electricity. A person can accomplish so much with electrity. Electricity allows so much advancement in technology that the world now could not operate without it. Not only has electricity paved the way for light, but others great ideas such as: batteries, electric cars (gotta have those), radios, computers, t.v.'s, and much more. Compared to every other invention that was ever made, in my opinion, electricity outshines all of them.
If electricity didn't exist, the only light that would appear would be from the sun, the moon, and fire. Electric light is almost something that people need in order to function. Without this type of light, many nights wouldn't be as exciting, productive and simple as with light. Electric light itself is an invention I would consider to be in the top 5 inventions. Its prominence in everyday life is only beaten by electricity itself and cars.
This invention has had the greatest impact over time because no other invention could get us as far as electricity. For example- the invention of the telephone. The telephone is an incredible idea that has formed into pocket- sized mini- versions of itself. However, electricity powers phones. Without the electric current running through the phone, the phone could not operate. Another example are planes. Planes are obviously used to travel people or items across a large amount of miles. There might even possibly be one day where planes don't require electricity. Even so, planes are only used for travel and the invention of electricity is used for many, many other functions.
Imagine life without electricity. Our world today would be so dull, boring and outdated that technology itself would probably take about 3 times the amount of time it takes to advance. In other words, many inventions now wouldn't exist without the invention of electricity (they probably would eventually come about in the years 2200 and onward. Moreover, with less inventions to be invented without electricity, cures and other extremely useful remedies would not be relevent today.
In conclusion, I believe the greatest invention ever to be invented was electricity. Electric light wouldn't have been invented without the electric power to guide it. No other invention is more useful and technological than electricity. Finally, a world without electricity would be lifeless. The ivention of electricity has created an opening in the ideas of tons of other inventions.
