851 has technology, but not much

As time went by, that once powerful and huge Shireck Consortium no longer existed. Nations around the world had also established their own technology R&D departments, tasked with developing or copying the new technologies that had emerged from Tang Country.

These countries were spending a fortune to support their national technologies, in an attempt to achieve a certain degree of self-sufficiency in technology.

They weren't wrong in doing so; after all, no one was content with letting one country master all technology. Everyone hoped to have a share in the technological realm and secure benefits for themselves.

Yet for most people of the time, even if they were to directly disassemble equipment produced by Tang Country for study, they could hardly comprehend such bewildering and innovative design concepts.
