What if the steam engine had never been invented?

Well, that's a really difficult question, so I can't imagine anything more droopy, but the development of railways, factories, ships, etc. may have slowed down or not occurred at all. Of course, we would have adapted and developed somehow even without those changes. Meow~ People found creative ways to fit that situation, and other inventions may have been born. Meow~ I think a world like that would be fun too. Meow~ Of course, I can't be of any help, but meow~
