RESEARCH PAPER:
NIKOLA TESLA
THE MASTER OF ELECTRICITY
Nikola Tesla, born July 9/10/1856, Smiljan, Austrian Empire (Croatia)
Died January 7-1943, New York, U.S. Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American Inventor and engineer who discovered and patented the rotating magnetic field the basis of most alternating-current machinery. Sadly few people recognize his name today, and even among those who do, the words Nikola Tesla are likely to summon up the image of a crackpot rather than an authentic scientist. Nikola Tesla was the greatest inventor the world has ever known. He was, without doubt, a prodigious genius who is not only credited with many devices we use today, but is also credited with astonishing, sometimes world-transforming, devices

The idea of the Nikola Tesla was innovative but was rejected by the government and his fellow rivals because millons of dolars would be wasted, like you could have a spotlight with light whenever you were, the theory of Nikola Tesla was that the Wardenclyffe Tower could pass electricity through the earth.
Tesla discovered, designed and developed ideas for a number of other important inventions such like the X-Ray, remote control, the ratio, the inventions were stealed to Tesla, for example the Ratio was created by Tesla but somehow Marconi got the patent of Tesla to create his ratio, and considering himself to the world as the creator of the Ratio, years later after Tesla died the world credited Nikola Tesla as the inventor of the Ratio and not Marconi, no on these days Nikola Tesla haves around 300 or more patents, most of them the government of the United States have them secured and hidden somewhere.
Sadly Marconi and Thomas Edison were into the radio invention too much that left Nikola Tesla without opportunity of overstanding, so he just left them win, to just abandon the

Sadly most of them were stealed to Nikola Tesla because he wasnt able to be succesfull with his inventions.
Regrettably the greatest inventor of all time in the year of 1895 his New York laboratory got burned, tons of notes, and equipment. Tesla moved to live to Colorado, and after two years later Tesla returned to New York. Tesla secured his backing from the famous financer J.P Morgan.
Sadly Tesla lived his last decades in a New York hotel still working on new inventions, even when he was mental health faded already.
In my opinion if people knew what Thomas Edison was doing against Nikola Tesla, literally not letting him making electricity free, everything could be different. If we payed attention to Tesla this, our present would be noticibly different, more technological.
The best invention of Thomas Edison was a way to steal credit, Edison didn’t stealed from Tesla, he stoled him from mankind.
