In Mozart's time, there was no electricity!
In the era of American independence, there was no electricity!
When Queen Victoria dominated the world, there was no electricity!
How come the United States has become a tribe after a few years without electricity.
Imagine what would happen to the world without electricity.
First of all, there will be cars, and neither gasoline engines nor diesel engines have to rely on electricity.
So there will be all kinds of vehicles and tanks.
The same is true for airplanes, although modern airplanes rely on a lot of avionics.
But basically there are old-fashioned machinery and equipment substitutes.
For example, inertial navigation is not as accurate as GPS and radio navigation, but it is not much worse.
Of course, the operation is complicated, the safety is reduced, and the carrying capacity is inevitably reduced.
Railway internal combustion engines and the like are no problem.
But there will be big troubles in the overall railway signal control. The efficiency may only be less than 5% of the current system, or even lower, much lower.
Entertainment basically depends on books, newspapers, and magazines.
There will be movies. The funny thing is that although movies have an electric word, they don't completely rely on electricity.
Whether it is film or light. But brightness will be a problem, but there should be a solution. Not much worse than the current movie.
That person said, what to do with the sound, don't forget, the phonograph does not use electricity, it is mechanically amplified.
The sound quality will be very bad. There will be no speakers. All speakers are based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Only use the principle of phonograph and mechanical amplification.
There will be refrigerators, kerosene refrigerators and gas refrigerators. They do not use electricity. Although they are very inefficient, they do.
Air conditioners are also available, and even more comfortable ground-energy air conditioners can be used.
Washing machine, electric fan, no problem.
The power source can be a clockwork or a flywheel battery. Although it is called a battery, this thing is originally mechanical. Charging is also simple.
However, power transmission problems will cause most household appliances (not electrical appliances) to be unable to move.
Without electricity, the biggest problem is communication. Communication is strongly dependent on electricity. Without electricity, long-distance fast communication will become extremely difficult.
Of course, it is not without solutions. It can be through optical fiber communication, relay amplification, mechanochemical interpretation, and pure mechanical printing.
Even build a purely mechanical computer.
But all these efficiencies are extremely low.
Not even the earliest 14.4k kittens.
Don't even think about quick communication for ordinary people. Honestly use traditional mail logistics. But because there are planes, it won't be too slow.
The Hongyan Biography is realized!
Of course, the production of many materials will encounter difficulties. After all, the dependence on electricity is too serious, but most of them can be solved by mechanochemical methods. Or substitute other slightly worse materials.
So all of the above can be achieved, but it will definitely be turbulent in the beginning. Social productivity has declined severely. There is insufficient food and frequent riots, but the national army will definitely still exist. After more than a few years, the adjustment will be fine.
People's lives will become very old-fashioned and traditional. The relationship between people will become closer, and there will be real parting and longing. Will appreciate the joy of getting together, and parting from the bitterness. It's definitely not "Send me a text after getting off the plane"
