The Industrial Revolution :: European Europe History

The Industrial innovationExamine in detail the History of the Industrial Revolution. Discuss why Britain led the way in the Industrial Revolution and withal pardon in detail the effect of industrialization on society.Had it not been for the industrial revolution, I would doubt very much that we would enjoy the technology we view as in the year 2000. The reason we have this technology is that between the historic period 1750 and 1914 a great change in the worlds history was made. People started to emit faster methods of producing goods, which increased their economy. These people were mainly British and French, but after(prenominal) a a couple of(prenominal) years the French were distracted by their revolution, and the British continued to industrialize. However you must not think this industrialization had no effects on society because it did. So in this essay I am going to talk about the history of the industrial revolution, dissertate why Britain led the way in the indust rial revolution and also I am going to explain to you in detail the effects of industrialization on society. In the midevel ages people were living in summate darkness, and they did not know what was going on in the world roughly them. Happily the medieval ages were followed by the renaissance. Then came the year 1750, the year of the uncouth revolution in Britain which led away to a revolution in industry. Charles Townshend for example was one of the people who made the farming(a) revolution possible. He suggested rotating the crops every year or two, to help the soil get enriched with vitamins and nutritions. The Americas thence introduced potatoes to Great Britain. New farm machines were invented, for example Jethro Tull developed a reference drill which planted seeds in straight rows and farmers began using new weigh plows in place of inofitiant wooden plows. In addition to that, the enclosure relocation brought wealthy people to farm larger amounts of land, which was ver y good for the agricultural revolution. This revolution improved peoples diet and health leading to an increased population, which demanded levelheaded food, clothing and employment. Since many farmers were seeking jobs, they found it now in the fabric industry, which created a new demand for laborers. You shall notice now that the mechanical inventions were so rapid and each one triggered another new one. A few examples of these inventions are the flying shuttle by John Kay, the spinning jenny by James Hargraves, the water frame by Richard Akriwght, the power stew by Edward Cartwight, Samuel Cromptons spinning mule, and Eli Whitneys cotton gin.
