Rachet Hercule Peter d'Everard was born in the [[Bourg d'Everard]] December 3, 1838 to Phillipe d'Everard (1810–1889) and Sarah d'Everard (née Felz) (1816–1900). d'Everard was educated at the university-adjacent [[Collinebourg School of Excellency]] from the age of six where he took a liking to the sciences. Interrupted by a two-year conscription with the [[Yonderian Defence Force|Yonderian Army]], d'Everard attended the [[University of Collinebourg]] from 1858 and received a doctorate in 1864. d'Everard also married Louise d'Auguste (1843–1940) in 1864 and received a research grant from the [[University of Collinebourg]] the same year.

In 1865, d'Everard discovered and subsequently published his discovery that a compass needle was deflected from magnetic north by a nearby electric current, confirming a direct relationship between electricity and magnetism. d'Everard made this discovery incidentally during a lecture, although he had, in fact, been looking for a connection between electricity and magnetism since 1862, but was quite confused by the results he was obtaining. For his discovery, the [[Grand Duke of Yonderre]] [[Giles IV Sentinelleau]] awarded d'Everard the [[Order of the Kestrel]] in 1866 and granted him 3,000 [[Yonderian Argent|Argents]] for further research.

d'Everard's findings stirred much research into electrodynamics throughout the scientific community, influencing [[Bergendii]] physicist Adrian Ampere's developments of a single mathematical formula to represent the magnetic forces between current-carrying conductors. d'Everard's work also represented a major step toward a unified concept of energy. The electromagnetic effect brought about a communications revolution due to its application to the improvement of the electric telegraph. The possibility of such a telegraph was suggested almost immediately by [[Urcea|Urcean]] mathematician [[Achaddeus Paulus]] and Ampere presented a paper based on Paulus' idea the same year as d'Everard's discovery.
