EQ What is the Industrial Revolution? How did Scientific and Technological Changes bring about social, economic, and cultural changes during the Industrial ? EQ

It officially began in England When Where The 18th and 19th centuries It officially began in England By the late 1800s, the Industrial Revolution was in full swing in Germany, the United States, Japan, and Russia England was the world’s first industrialized country and the world’s first capitalist economy By 1850, the Industrial Revolution began spreading to Western Europe and the United States

What It was an economic and social revolution Economic changes transformed the way people worked… the societies in which they lived There were seismic changes in industry and society. The changes were caused by the introduction and large-scale use of machinery to replace hand labor New technology allowed for the rise of the factory system What

Why Why do they call it a “Revolution”? The Industrial Revolution is more than just technology; it was a major turning point in World History. The Industrial Revolution had a bigger impact than the American and French Revolutions The industrial Revolution was the most far-reaching transformation of society since the beginning of farming 10,000 years ago

How All that machinery in factories … how was that machinery powered? By new fuels: Coal Coal produced steam – Steam Engine By old fuel ”The Watermill” At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, factories were run by watermills. That is, a factory was always located next to a river. The machines were run by waterpower) How

Food - You must have a surplus of food The Agricultural Revolution, 1700s Improved farming techniques like crop rotation Price of food was low, so people could afford manufactured goods. People didn’t have to farm, go to work in cities. Why in England

You must have a great accumulation of cash The Commercial Revolution, 1700s This was trade, The British accumulated great wealth. England had Capital

The labor force must be large The Population Explosion England had A Labor Force The labor force must be large The Population Explosion From 1750 to 1850, the British population tripled More food led to more children; better sanitation led to drop in death rate Abundant labor supply to mine coal and run factories.

Why In England? Britain’s population grew rapidly in the 1700’s People had better food, better health, and lived longer. Changes in farming help to increase the supply of industry workers.

Natural Resources You must have coal and iron mines already in operation Industrial Revolution was driven by coal > steam The first factories were built near the coal mines The first factories were textiles mills The first factory workers were women and children Two important industries were coal (to run machinery) and iron (to make machinery)

Coal mining became a major industry. Steel and Iron Henry Cort discovered a way to use coal to turn iron ore into pure iron. Iron production grew. Henry Bessemer made a less costly way to turn iron into steel. Steel was excellent to making machinery. Soon mining towns and steel centers grew.

Technology You must have new technology, such as the steam engine The Scientific Revolution, 1600s The Royal Society of London encouraged scientific discoveries During the 1700s, inventors and innovators stepped forward to invent solutions to practice problems In 1769, James Watt perfected the steam engine

There were three major changes: a. Population growth During the Industrial Revolution, what happened to the population of Great Britain? There were three major changes: a. Population growth b. Rural to urban migration c. The growth of industrial cities We are going to explore each change.

The population triples For centuries, England’s population hovered between 2 and 6 million. During the century from 1750 to 1850, the population tripled - to 21 million. This was a result of the Agricultural Revolution of the 1700s: More food! POPULATION Growth
