Specifically, steampunk involves an era or world where steam power is still widely usedÑusually the 19th century and often Victorian era BritainÑthat incorporates prominent elements of either
science fiction or fantasy. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them; in other words, based on a Victorian
perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, art, etc. This technology may include such fictional machines as those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne or real technologies like
the computer but developed earlier in an alternate history.
