The invention of the internal combustion engine opens the way to modern day transport as we know it. Although the steam engine had already started a revolution in transport, and the smoke-belching iron monsters were crossing Europe on their rails, common people couldn't make such a good use of it. After all, it proved really difficult to make the steam engine small enough for personal transport; and here's where combustion comes in - it smethod of transforming energy into motion could be fit into a machine the size of a carriage.

  • The cars haven't advanced that much since we were kids. When you boil it down, it's still a gas combustion engine.

abstract
  • The invention of the internal combustion engine opens the way to modern day transport as we know it. Although the steam engine had already started a revolution in transport, and the smoke-belching iron monsters were crossing Europe on their rails, common people couldn't make such a good use of it. After all, it proved really difficult to make the steam engine small enough for personal transport; and here's where combustion comes in - it smethod of transforming energy into motion could be fit into a machine the size of a carriage. It wasn't that simple, of course. This engine needed another, more efficient material to burn than the messy Coal, and thus Oil is revealed to the world. Your Builders can now construct the land-based improvement which accesses it, the Oil Well. And since an important technological advancement cannot pass without causing a stir in the military - we get the modern Era heavy cavalry - the Tank.
