From Euclidean Geometry to Non-Euclidean Geometry
Euclidean geometry is one of the earliest geometry concepts known to man.
It works best when applied to 2D plains/objects. However when applied to 3D surfaces, 3D macro objects it becomes less functional thus Non-Euclidean geometry came to being.
Euclid Ipsa scientia potestas est
Gauss,Bolyai and Lobachevski
The axiomatic study of Euclidean geometry in the 19th Century led to the discovery of non-Euclidean geometries with different axioms. Gauss, Bolyai and Lobachevski independently discovered Hyperbolic Geometry, in which the Euclidean axiom of parallelism is replaced by an alternative.

Poincaré soon discovered the first physical geometric model of hyperbolic geometry, in a form known as the Poincaré disc.

Aftermath of the creation of Non-Euclidean geometry
Faber est quisque fortunae suae
Even though the discovery didn’t benefit the people of the 19th century immediately nowadays Non-Euclidean/Axiomatic Geometry is inseparable from our daily lives.
It is absolutely essential for scientists. Many of the science models are created in 3 dimensions (3D) so the classical Euclidean geometry is just not enough for an accurate model.

The shown above is referred to as Fundamental interaction or The 4 forces of nature. They are the 4 absolute laws of the universe and their Accurate representation in physical and mathematical models is Heavily dependent on Axiomatic Geometry!All terrestrial and celestial events can be represented with Axiomatic Geometry!
