During the Industrial Revolution, Great Britain experienced increased population, trade and an expanded economy. In the 1850’s, population reached a staggering 266 million. Because there were so many people, and because Britain was making and exporting so many goods, new factories opened up. And because of this, many new jobs became available. This caused industrial capitalism. Industrial capitalism is an economic system that is based on industrial production. Because so many people were now in Britain, it became dense and urban. This caused many new factories to open up, which caused the production of all exports to increase, which led to industrial capitalism to grow in Great Britain.…
Beginning in the middle of the eighteenth century, the Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain. This revolution greatly increased the output of machine made goods. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain because of its many natural resources such as coal, iron, water, and lead. Great Britain had natural harbors and rivers. Great Britain was an Island in Western Europe that was separated from Europe, which meant no wars. Also, the Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain because of the textile industry. Britain had an abundance of cotton, used in the making of textiles. When the cottage industry and the manufacturing of clothing at home changed to the factory system, new machines were being created. Also, several key-inventors of these machines were from Great Britain and contributed to the factory system being established. Also, efficient transportation was already set up in Britain and it was further innovated with the demand between producers and suppliers. Great Britain also had a lot of natural resources such as coal and iron. the Industrial Revolution affected every part of life in Great Britainm but proved to be a mixed blessing. Eventually, indutrialization led to be a better quality of life for most people. But the change to machine production initially caused human suffering. Rapid industrialization brought plentiful jons, the ills of child labor. It also led to rising class tensions, especially between the working class and the middle class.…
There were many reasons the Industrial Revolution began in England. There were the necessary resources in place, motivation was high for the workers, and different innovations helped increase production speed in factories. Without these points the Industrial revolution never would have started in England.…
The Industrial Revolution refers to the process of developing product in factories through machines. In other word, it is the transition from handmade production to machine. And began in england in the middle 1700s and eventually spread to rest of the world. In addition, England’s Agricultural Revolution, the time that new farming techniques and method to grow and harvest food more quickly and efficiently was developed, helped increase food supplies. As food supplies increased, its population also increased. Therefore , the people need to have more resources to live. As a result, entrepreneurs built factories near the city and created more jobs for the workers. As the worker moved, the areas became populated or urbanized. While industrialization eventually spread to different parts of the world overtime , the evidence indicates that it began in england because of the descent amount of resources, inventions starting to be discovered , and political order or liberty.…
The Industrial Revolution started in England the 1700’s in the textile industry. The Industrial Revolution is the transition to man made machines. Textiles is where cloth is woven by workers. By the 1800th century all of that was done by machines. England had vast resources of coal, iron,tin, wool, lead, and cotton; also it was close to water for canals (Document 1). One of the most important reason to why the Industrial Revolution started in England and not somewhere else. England had all the resources they just needed the right minds to start the process of the Revolution. “England … has been fortunate in possessing the natural conditions necessary to success …. We recognize that England is rich in these advantages, that she has coal and iron lying close together, that her sheep give the best wool, that her harbors are plentiful, that she is…
The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain for many reasons. The conditions in Britain happened to be perfect at that time. England's natural resources helped in many ways to boom the newly Industrial Revolution. For instance, England's abundance of coal provided a good power source for energy; its abundance of iron would be needed for construction (Doc. 1, 4) and the damp climate was good for cotton growing. These new source of energies replaced wind and water to create "labor saving" machines that dramatically decrease the use of human and animal labors and at the same time increase the level of productivity. As a result England's population grew rapidly providing a labor force for the industry.…
The Industrial Revolution began in England. This was made possible by the fact that England had the natural resources needed to make an Industrial Revolution happen. They had the land to farm and produce more crops. They had the people…
The Industrial Revolution started in England because of the extravagant amount of water sources and the country had, it also had a large amount of wool. The changes in farming and the many inventions that were made and the scientific thought put into the inventions greatly impacted the process of industrialization. Having a large amount of water aloud for more factories because they machines in the factories ran on water power. As for wool, farmers went from planting crops to living in the city working in a factory. This change occurred because the people who actually owned the land told the farmers to leave the land because the real owners wanted to raise sheep for wool. Inventions were a big part of the success of the industrialization. The inventions of new machines allowed products to be made quicker which initialed more goods to be bought and traded.…
The Industrial Revolution was a transformation in Great Britain during the 18th and 19th century that involved great innovations in technologies, manufacturing, agriculture, and transportations. Changes in government, society, and trade also proved that the Industrial Revolution was a period of time where new ideas thrived and that countries around the world were greatly affected. The immense growth in population, which mainly consisted of workers and laborers, the effective waterways and abundant natural resources, and the political stability of Great Britain all caused the country to become the very first one to experience an Industrial Revolution.…
In the mid 1700’s there was an event that took place throughout Great Britain called the Industrial Revolution. The revolution had begun in Britain due to the development in technology and labor which also helped the economics and finances. First, the revolution caused a drastic movement in technology that resulted in new machine development. The machines took Britain further advancements; they began to have machines like that of the railroads, steamships and telegraphs. The railroads along with the steamships, telegraphs, and canals helped the industry by making the demand for transportation effective but also more demanding.…
The Industrial Revolution started in Europe in the eighteenth century where Britain is considered the most powerful nation. How did the British Empire became the most powerful nation? They discover a new fuel source called coal that replace wood because the wood is only getting expensive. There is a large amount of coal underground, so it is cheaper and coal is more efficient for fuel than wood. However, the problem about extracting coal is water flooding into the caverns, so the workers need a way to extract the water quickly in order to dig for more coal.…
The industrial revolution began in Britain and worked it’s way to America. Most of the people who lived in Britain resided in small rural towns where their daily living revolved around farming. The people of these towns lives were hard as incomes were low and malnourishment and diseases were high. An abundance of the good that these people lived on such as clothing and food were produced in the communities, most of the production was done in the homes of these people with small hand tools. Times were very hard for these people and when the industrial revolution began it made life easier on the ones who inhabited these communities. Although those are some reasons to why the industrial revolution began, they are not the main reasons why. The industrial revolution began in Britain due to the fact that it deposited great amounts of coal and iron ore, two compounds need for industrialization. Although many of the communities in Britain were very poor, Britain itself was a very “politically sustainable society” and was the world's leading colonial power, this would allow for Britain to be source of raw materials as well as the manufacturer of goods. When Britain started to industrialize it did not take long for other countries, especially America, to follow…
From the beginning of the 18th century up until the 19th century, the Industrial Revolution changed the world. All of the changes began in Great Britain. This was due to many factors. The Agricultural Revolution that was going on during this time gave many new technologies to improve the life of its citizens. Great Britain also had an abundance of natural resources, available capital and political support for innovation.…
England was the first country to experience the Industrial Revolution, as well as its advantages and disadvantages that came with it. England was a good source of coal and iron, some of the most important resources needed by a country during the Industrial Revolution. England experienced the Industrial Revolution first because the country was plentiful in lead, copper, tin, limestone and fast water supplies. With these resources, England was probably the most ideal place for the Industrial Revolution to begin.…
The first country to industrialise was the United Kingdom during the Industrial Revolution commencing in the eighteenth century.[4]…
