'''Steel''' is the name of a metal created by adding a precise amount of carbon to iron.

Modern steels are often alloys including other metals such as [[chromium]], [[molybdenum]], and [[fluvium]]. Historically smiths have often accidentally created steel by forging iron with the correct carbon content, but the large scale manufacture of steel is a relatively new industry. Many famous structures such as the [[Eiffel Tower]] and [[Golden Gate Bridge]] are made of iron, as steel was too expensive to produce in large quantities. Large scale manufacturing of steel came about through the [[industrial revolution]] and the rise of [[corporations]], allowing large industry to operate efficiently.

Steel has allowed great advances in the modern world due to its higher strength for low cost compared to iron. Many world-changing inventions such as the [[internal combustion]] engine would have been impractical without it, as engineers were able to build intricate parts with high strength and a wide range of working temperatures.
