Industrial Revolution

Three factors influence the Industrial revolution, these factors include :a population boom: a canal boom: and policies of the government of parliament. The revolution first occurred in Britain and later spread throughout the world. Cotton also had a prevalent influence on the revolution, these influences are demonstrated in the Cottage Industries.
