Introduction
The world has had many advances and changes in history. In the time period 1750-1900, the world changed immensely, bringing in not only new inventions and technology, but also the Industrial Revolution, Europe’s Imperial Expansion and migration of many people. This time period had many developments and communications that were also carried on after 1900, which was further improved later years ages this time period.
Industrialization
The Industrial Revolution began in Britain, as there was accessibility for trade, population growth and a stable government. In Britain, many new inventions such as the Spinning Jenny, the flying shuttle and the steam engine were designed. As many more inventions were created, farming methods improved making about half the population move to cities and find industrial jobs. This led to the loss of farms. The industrial revolution

Finally, in 1883, the British Parliament introduced laws to make the working and living conditions safer and cleaner for workers.
European Imperial Expansion
As Britain led the Industrial Revolution, it enabled them to have power that allowed them to build new empires of other lands including Australia. They used trade, technological revolution and inequalities among regions to dominate other lands. This led to many new developments of trade and transport.
European imperialism also had a negative effect on culture and language. For example, when the British arrived at Sydney Cove, the Aborigines thought of it as a threat, as the British did not understand their language. This was a problem for the British and obstructed them from building empires. Overall, European imperial expansion had a positive impact with a few negative effects due to culture and language.
Movement of People
The Industrial Revolution brought along many changes and influences on migration. There were many changes in food, medical conditions and
“The most important of the changes that brought about the Industrial Revolution were (1) the invention of machines to do the work of hand tools; (2) the use of steam, and later of other kinds of power, in place of the muscles of human beings and of animals; and (3) the adoption of the factory system” (Industrial Revolution). The Industrial Revolution was a big event that happened in Europe. Those three main changes impacted everything in a huge way. The Industrial Revolution in Europe was a positive occurrence that changed how products were made and how people lived their everyday lives.
The Industrial Revolution, which took place from the 18th to 19th centuries, changed the way countries in Europe functioned. Before this it was a period predominantly agrarian. The industrial revolution led rural societies in Europe to become industrial and urban. Preceding the Industrial Revolution, manufacturing was often done in people’s homes, using hand tools or basic machinery. Industrialization let to a shift to powered machines and advanced tools, factorization.
Before the late 1700s, Europe and America were chiefly agrarian rural societies. Most people had small workshops or worked out of their homes in what was called a cottage industry. Innovations such as the Water Frame, Spinning Jenny, and Steam Engine revolutionized the textile industry and culminated in a boost to the economy. These inventions sparked the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in England, and the new technology propelled the country's shift to a manufacturing and urban society. Eventually, the revolution spread to other countries.
In the late 18th century, a few small, relatively simple inventions from England started an Industrial Revolution that forever changed the way people consumed and produced products. Machines such as the water frame and cotton gin made textile production much faster and more profitable. This industrialization spread to almost every area of industry, from transportation to agriculture, where new inventions were springing up and it would be only a short time before they were implemented in the new industrial world. To take advantage of the many new jobs created by these machines, people moved in large numbers from rural areas into cities where factories were set up. The industrial revolution changed society in a massive way, making it easier
The period between 1877 and 1920 marked a significant chapter in American history, characterized by a massive wave of immigration. This transformative era witnessed both notable changes and enduring continuities that shaped the United States. Exploring this topic as a college student, we delve into the historical events of this period and analyze the dynamics of immigration during this time frame. By examining what changed and what remained the same between 1877 and 1920, we gain valuable insights into the societal and cultural shifts that occurred. Changes in Immigration (1877-1920): One of the most prominent changes during this period was the shift in the countries of origin for incoming immigrants.
The Industrial Revolution needed Labor, Natural resources, Capital. The Industrial Revolution began in Britain because it had more labors and more crops and the natural resources of Industrial Revolution is iron and coal and waterways. The Industrial Revolution a lot of products were changing and they were made of machines. Although the economic effects of the Industrial Revolution were somewhat negative because of hard working conditions it was mostly positive because workers had more rights and they had more products.
The Industrial Revolution was one of the most drastic changes in society, economy, and overall life throughout Great Britain. By the 1780’s, the British Industrial Revolution began to truly accelerate after people realized they had access to resources such as coal and iron. The people of England used these resources to create machines, such as the Steam Engine. Not only did these new inventions make England wealthy, but transportation and the quality of clothing also improved, along with several other issues. Yet, although so much change was in occurrence, it was not all positive.
The Industrial Revolution began in England in the 1700’s within the textile industry. The Industrial Revolution was the transition to new manufacturing processes by using different machines. Before the Industrial Revolution people made different things by hand or simple tools. For example, people wove textiles by hand, and after the Industrial Revolution machines were used instead. The Industrial Revolution began in England because of many reasons.
The Industrial Revolution was from 1750 to 1830, a period of time that caused an economical and cultural shift. This era brought a mix of positive and negative effects that not only affected the area it was in but also its surroundings. In result of the revolution there was the cottage industry, agriculture, harsh labor within the system of factory- based manufacturing that included complex machinery, the growth of technology, new resources and the development of transportation. Also the series inventions that increased the production of manufactured goods, which then led to the increased size in the population. A series of the positive effects that came from the industrialization mostly came from the factory owners and the individuals who were above the middle class.
They had better tools and more knowledge causing imperialism to hit the highest peak for Australia. The convicts helped establish the first towns in Australia, but with as these towns were being made convicts were paying their bail and being set free. Most of them becoming business starters or entrepreneurs, making a life for their own in their new land. With the new modern technology gold was found and that was the start of the gold rush for Australia. People were coming from all over to find their own gold exploding the population of Australia and making it bigger.
The Second Industrial Revolution, which peaked between 1870 and 1914, was aiming to expedite the extraction of the gold from the mines, railroads had to be laid to reach across the land to the ports for global trading (Engelman, Ryan). This made factories call in more and more workers, and in 1880, five million Americans were industrial employees. (Lutz, Alexandra) Compared to the First Industrial Revolution where only few laws or regulations existed for the workers, more labor laws were created during the Second Industrial Revolution, aiming to ensure the safety of the workers. A series of further Acts, which was regulated during 1860 and 1872, aimed to strengthen the safety provisions of the workers.
Prior to the Industrial Revolution, which began in Britain in the late 1700s, manufacturing was often done in people’s homes, using hand tools or basic machines. Industrialization marked a shift to powered, special-purpose machinery, factories and mass production. The iron and textile industries, along with the development of the steam engine, played central roles in the Industrial Revolution, which also saw improved systems of
Industrial Revolution started in Great Britain and later progressed to the United States between the years 18th and 19th century. The Industrial Revolution marked a great milestone in the world history; various aspects of our day-to-day life were reformed in some way. Humans were transformed from handmade and tools to the assistance of machines. The main purposes for Industrial Revolution happened was peoples want an improvement for their life in order to overcome the hardship during the 18th century. Without the Industrial Revolution, it can be argued that the world today would not have a better standard of living through technology advancements, medication and educations.
The most important event in history: Industrial Revolution Context The industrial revolution was the most significant event in history, which started around the eighteenth century towards the nineteenth century in Europe. This great event was the fastest spreading event in human history. The capacity of economy and population growth was unexpected especially at the areas in which it flourished. The industrial revolution benefited almost everyone around the world and brought about new social classes, large cities and countless new innovations including medical discoveries especially in Britain, which based its scientific innovations on experiments and practical work rather than theories and logic, are the great outcomes of this still going event.
