Steampunk depicts
an era where steam power is still widely used —
usually the 19th century and often Victorian era
Britain — it incorporates prominent elements of
science fiction and fantasy.
Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic
technology based on a Victorian perspective of
fashion, culture and style. This technology may
include such fictional machines as those found in
the works of
H.G. Wells and Jules Verne or real
modern technologies like the computer but depict how
they might have developed in an earlier alternate
history.
