Montgolfiers
In 1782, the brothers Montgolfier invented a paper balloon capable of rising into the sky when filled with warm air. Pilate de Rosier performed the first flight on a fabric balloon in 1783. A balloon creates a carrying power thanks to the warm air inside being lighter than the surrounding atmosphere. Such balloons are called Montgolfiers after their inventors. According to a manuscript found in Riazan (Russia), the cleric Kriakutnoy performed a flight on a balloon filled with warm air before the brothers Montgolfier in 1731. However, his flight was unsuccessful. Napoleon used balloons for reconnaissance - to observe enemy positions. Balloons were also used at various festivities and parades. Giving a demonstration of scientific achievements, they helped raising people's morale.

Montgolfiers are launched after the transition to the 18th century and a special upgrade in the Academy has been carried out. When playing for the Ukraine, the Montgolfier will show up as soon as you are in the 18th century. |
