1. The Industrial Revolution began in England that was something new in history and unplanned. The term was coined in the 1830s by awed contemporaries to describe the burst of major inventions and technical changes that they witnessed in certain industries.…
The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain for many reasons. Great Britain’s Geography was one of the best. It had natural harbors and rivers, and it also had natural resources such as water and coal and iron. in (document 1) in order to industrialize, England must have the resources such as coal, iron, water, wool, cotton, tin and lead. Also, in (document 2) the geography of England helped them industrialize by having many…
England had an abundance of natural resources that could be used in factories. In Document 1 it shows that England had materials such as; wool, cotton, coal, lead and so forth. Not only did they have a lot of it, it was very easy to collect and supplies were close together. The whole country was small enough that it was easy to transport supplies.…
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.…
England, the lead world superpower at the time, had both the financial and intellectual resources available to put into research and development for Industrial Revolution to begin in England. Being an economic beacon they tended to attract the smartest and most motivated individuals, who were in need of work, to England. Economic pressures in the textile business, which England dominated, started to drive toward industrialized factories. The increase of economic efficiently drove the Machine Age forward.…
At the turn of the century in the year 1800, the Industrial Revolution was gaining speed in the United States. The American factory system was launched in to production after new methods of mass producing goods and and the idea of interchangeable parts were introduced. Cotton production was at its peak in the South with the introduction of the cotton gin. In the North, the landscape did not allow farming to flourish like it did in the South, so the North was home to the majority of industry and production. The spark of industry led to the development of roads and canals which made it possible to transport goods from state to state.…
England had the natural resources to make an Industrial Revolution happen. England had wool, coal, iron, cotton, lead, tin, and water (doc 1). They needed wool and cotton to make yarn and clothes.They needed coal for fueling machinery. Iron was used to make railroads. Water was used to…
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.…
During the time period of 1780-1850 the United States and Great Britain were part of the Industrial Revolution. This revolution was a time of many changes with technology and scientific advancements.…
The Industrial Revolution is generally considered as a transition process from handcrafted manufacturing to factory production. Although scientists do not have a single view on the start of this movement, the “invention” theory seems to be the most powerful in explaining the causes of the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.…
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…
Most of us know that the facilities available to us today were provided by the Industrial Revolution, however, what few people know is the reasons that promoted this historic event. Three main causes that sparked the Industrial Revolution include, population increase, expansion of foreign trade, and the need for efficient means of transportation.…
