Steampunk and the rise of the modern-day Victorian inventors explained

In August 2016, Oamaru, New Zealand, broke the world record for the greatest number of steampunks gathered in once place - but what is steampunk? First used in 1987, the term refers to a sub genre of science fiction that imagines a Victorian vision of the future, spawning a whole world of literature, fashion and culture.

    Such an amazing genre that didn't exist in real life sadly.

    For those who fell asleep in 19th Century Literature class and thought it was Harry Potter. Real history and living history is far more interesting than this.

    Boooooring! Also this doesn’t really have anything to do with harry potter or history class. It’s a fictional aesthetic.
