Answer:

Explanation:

Holland is probably the most famous example. The Dutch have always had wind mills to grind grain and pump water.

They certainly were not the first people to do this. The Persians did much the same thing from 500 to 900 BC.

Then there is the whole history of Navel vessels. People went up and down the Nile and across the Mediterranean using winds to fill sails so that ships could could move. The Spanish and English had whole fleets of wind powered ships used primarily as men of war.
