Morphine was invented in the early 1800’s long before heroin came along. Since then they have tried to improve on it in many ways. For example, making drugs like heroin, hydrocodone and Oxy’s. A couple of things are true of all of them, one thing is that they all help to relive pain and the other is that they are very addicting.

It was not until much later that it was found that morphine was more addictive than either opium or alcohol, morphine was used extensively during the Civil War it is though this was the cause of over 400,000 new drug addicts it was later to be coined the soldier's disease. This was a hard time for all addicts. They really had no idea how to treat morphine addicts and many ended up in asylums.
Diacetylmorphine aka as heroin was to be developed from morphine in 1874 and sold by the famous Bayer manufactures in 1898. Heroin is said to be 1.5–2 times stronger than morphine.
