Species. Darwin’s arguments, and those of his contemporary, Alfred Russell

Wallace, were so convincing that they were only disputed on philosophical

grounds, mainly by religious fundamentalists. The theory of organic evolution

was the foundation of all following research in biology.

civilization advances, the one currently being researched and one other. The

advance of Railroads makes Darwin’s Voyage possible. The Voyage costs 300

resources.

Isaac Newton’s College: Considered by many to be the greatest scientist of all

time, Newton developed theories of universal gravitation that explained both the

motion of heavenly bodies and the falling of bodies to Earth. He also wrote

important works on calculus, optics, the spectrum of light, fluid mechanics, the

motion of comets and the motion of tides, and he built the first reflecting

telescope. For 32 years he was a professor of mathematics at Cambridge

University.

Possessing Newton’s College increases the knowledge benefit of all your

Libraries and Universities. It may be built once you have acquired the Theory of

Gravity, but stops working after the development of Nuclear Fission. The College

requires 400 resources to build.

written while he was serving the church, and most pieces were written for the

organ and dedicated to the glory of his God.

died in the Philippines fighting natives. Only one of his five original ships and few

of his men reached home, but the expedition proved that the Earth was round.
