Victorian times

I have started to do some research about steampunk. Steampunk is set in the victorian times so I have research into some of the victorian times inventions and architecture in the victorian times. 
During victorian times there are a lot of inventions such as the first gasoline powered car, the light bulb that can burn for 1500 hours, telephones and more.
All this inventions makes our live more easier. During the victorian times they are just using  oil lamp and also steam powered stuff. 
The architecture during that times is based on Gothic and Italianate. The building style is very popular on that times they spread through every where in books and pictures. There are a lot of building is still keeping the style of it.
