and colossus was the first programmable electric computer created by the code breakers at bletchly park who were trying to break the german enigma code.
however we can go back much further in time to ancient greece where the first mechanical computers were created. nice try, but again you fail.
perhaps you want to suggest that the russians created the first airplane? the first hot air balloon? the first automobile? what else would you like to fail to prove so you can show yourself to be the fully indoctrinated useful idiot?

First you need to learn how to read. It was mentioned about the first computer classic. The computer is modern pioneal in the form that we see today in the modern world. Historical documents prove irrefutably that the world's first aircraft was created in Russia. The creator of the world's first aircraft is Alexander Fedorovich Mozhaysky. He built and tested the first plane twenty years earlier than the Wright brothers in America, who until recently was completely undeservedly attributed this invention. It was Mozhaisky that adopted the project and the aircraft in the modern sense of the word, namely:
- the presence of the fuselage, wings, propeller group, landing gear, tail unit;
-For the first time in history the device was manufactured and tested. And demonstrated to the public in1876 in St. Petersburg.
In 1877 A.F. Mozhaisky decided to "subject his invention to a court of scientific criticism by inviting the military ministry to use his project for military purposes in the forthcoming war with Turkey." The inventor appealed to Count V. Totleben, Chairman of the Air Force Commission of the War Ministry, asking him to provide him with the necessary funds "for the further production of research and experiments both over the movement of the projected projectile and for determining the various data necessary for the rational and correct arrangement of all the components of such a projectile ".
January 20, 1877 by order of the War Minister Count B.C. Milutin for the consideration of the project A.F. Mozhaisky was formed a special commission, which included also D.I. Mendeleev. After two meetings, the commission presented a detailed report on the Mozhaisky project to the Main Engineering Department. Thanks to the support of D.I. Mendeleev, it was decided to let the inventor 3000 rubles (money at that time huge) for further work and oblige him to submit a program of experiments on the apparatus.
February 14, 1877 A.F. Mozhaisky presented his program of experiments on the models of the aircraft to the Main Engineering Administration. It provided for the study of propellers, the determination of the sizes and shapes of the steering and bearing surfaces, the specific load on the wing, the resolution of the question of controllability and strength of the aircraft.
On preliminary studies AF. Mozhaisky spent about 15 years. Spend the same amount of time on the construction of an aircraft - an inadmissible luxury. And the inventor coped in less than 5 years - by early 1882 the plane was ready.
The Russian inventor, Rear Admiral Alexander Fedorovich Mozhaisky In 1881 he received a "privilege" (patent) for the "aeronautical projectile" (airplane) he invented, which was built in full size in 1882.The first flight took place in public in 1882.

In addition, there are notes in the newspapers. A few days later the newspaper Kronstadtsky Vestnik enthusiastically wrote: "The inventor quite rightly decided the long-standing question of aeronautics. The device with the help of its propellers not only flies, runs on the ground, but can also swim. The speed of flight of the device is amazing; he is not afraid of gravity or wind and is able to fly in any direction ... "
Mikhail Ivanovich Mendeleyev, a professor at St. Petersburg University, was interested in Mozhaisky's experiments, whose works were already known worldwide. Perhaps he insisted that the special commission of the Main Engineering Administration allocate funds to the inventor to continue the experiments. The great scientist became like-minded Alexander Fedorovich Mozhaysky. The inventor developed a clear "Program of Experiments on Aircraft Models" - a document that was the world's first scientifically developed aerodynamic research plan, without which it is impossible to build the aircraft itself.
Having received only a part of the promised amount (2,192 rubles), the inventor undertook the implementation of his program. He had to work in very difficult conditions. But, despite difficulties and extreme need, A.F. Mozhaisky soon built a new model of an airplane. This model, according to contemporaries, "flew completely freely and descended very smoothly; the flight took place also when the dagger was placed on the model, which represents a very significant cargo. The invention of Mr. Mozhaisky was already tested by several well-known specialists and earned their approval ... The very invention is kept secret. "
 As a result of new studies carried out, A.F. Mozhaysky in the beginning of 1878 came to the conclusion that it is possible to use air resistance to create a lifting force. On this subject he wrote: "... for the possibility of hovering in the air there is some relation between the severity, speed and size of the area or plane, and, undoubtedly, the greater the speed of movement, the greater the weight can carry the same area." This formulation of one of the most important laws of aerodynamics - the significance of speed for the creation of a lift - was given by A.F. Mozhaysky 11 years before the publication of such works by G. Marey and O. Lilienthal, who reached the same conclusion only in 1889. It is well known that the mathematical substantiation of the rise of the lifting force was first given in 1905 by the Russian scientist N.E. Zhukovsky in his work "On attached vortices", in which he derived a theorem on the lift of a wing.
In the spring of 1878, A.F. Mozhaisky decided to move to the construction of a full-sized aircraft. On March 23, 1878, he applied to the Main Engineering Directorate with a memorandum stating that "the data required for the resolution of the matter can only be obtained over an apparatus of such size that a person could control the power of the machine and the direction of the apparatus," and asked for the release of funds for the construction of an airplane, the cost of which was determined at 18,895 rubles.
The prayer-room of the "balloon projectile", designed by AF Mozhaisky. Like a modern aircraft, it had all the main components - the fuselage, wings, tail, control and power unit.
For the first time having developed a fuselage type aircraft, Mozhaisky for 30-odd years of opera-lil Western European and American designers, who only in 1909 began to build such aircraft. And Ilya used a fuselage-stick for landing on the ox for the first time was implemented in 1913 by another Russian designer and inventor, D.P. Grigorovich - the creator of the first boat gilroaeroplan.
The proposal of the designer was considered by a special commission, which presented detailed drawings of the aircraft, justified by calculations, and an explanatory note containing the description of the apparatus.
As engines it was planned to install two steam engines with a total capacity of 30 hp. One of the machines was supposed to work on the nasal pulling screw, and the other - through transmission to the two rear propellers. The device, according to the plan of the inventor, could make a landing and on water, for which the fuselage was given the shape of a boat.
In addition to the development of the project, A.F. Mozhaisky described in detail the technique for taking off his aircraft and foresaw the installation of aeronautical equipment: a compass, a speedometer, an altimeter barometer, two thermometers, three rollers and a sight for bombing - the aircraft was intended for bomber and reconnaissance purposes.
The expert commission, which this time included foreigners with little interest in the development of Russian aviation - General Pauker, General Gerya and Colonel Walberg - believed that if the problem of building an aircraft is heavier than air and will be solved, it is by no means in Russia , but in Western Europe. Having considered the explanatory note of A.F. Mozhaysky, the commission issued a strikingly ignorant decision in which it was said that she "does not find the assurance that the experiments on Mozhaisky's projectile, even after various possible changes in it, could lead to useful practical results, if not it is designed by a shell on completely different bases, with movable wings that can change not only their position relative to the gondola, but also their shape during the flight ... The amount claimed now by Mr. Mozhaysky is so significant that the commission does not resolve I welcome her provision.
Once upon a time, Leonty Shamshurenkov created the first self-propelled vehicle, which is considered the prototype of a modern car. This device can develop a speed of about 15 km / h and was equipped with a device that measures the mileage.

Ivan Kulibin's Rolling Carriage
It was not without the famous Ivan Kulibin. He came up with a three-wheeled scooter that drove around the city at a speed of 16 km / h. There were even some details that are used in modern transport to this day, for example, a brake or gearbox.
Some think that the very first world car was designed exactly by engineer Karl Benz. But it is worth acknowledging that he really made a huge contribution to the promotion of these vehicles.
The first machines were equipped with a steam engine. Only in a century they were replaced by apparatus with internal combustion engines. In Russia, devices were created in the 19th century.
The very first car with a steam engine won the widest popularity. The machine was developed in 1769 by the French scientist Cunho and was called the "Small Canyon of Cuneo". This transport could pick up speed of only 4.5 km / h, and water and steam was enough for only 12 minutes of movement.
