Introduction
According to Kemp, (2014), the industrialization process refers to the evolution of production mode and technologies. It led to a replacement of the traditional processes with new technologies such as steam engines, improved transportation, and textile processing that helped to increase efficiency. The industrial revolution happened between the year 1760 to around 1840, and the revolution started in the Great Britain. The Malthusian effects made the countries continue with the traditional ways of doing things. However, in France, the average income took time to grow.
