What is the Industrialization?
The Industrial Revolution started in Great Britain in the 1760s. It was the
transition from creating goods by hand, to using machines. First, Britain
was a rich country with enough capital to invest in new machinery and
factories. Second, the transportation system helped in necessities. And
lastly, the agricultural revolution changed the practices.

The Great Inventions!

Britain was responsible for the production of cotton in the 18th century. They needed 1)
spinners to transform raw cotton into soft ones, and 2) looms to weave the cotton threads
into cloths

Steam engines played a massive role and led to the growth of coal industries; it was pretty successful.
Britain had lots of resources like iron ore to help in the industry. During the 1780s, a man named Henry Quart designed the process
known as Puddling. 17,000 tons of iron was produced in 1740. After a new, advanced method, it got increased to 70,000 tons.
The very first and most famous railway was called The Rocket, by Richard Trevthick.

The early spread of the industrialization in Europe began in Belgium, France, and Germany.
The total population in the US was estimated about 5 million people most worked as farmers, as time
passed the population increased to 30 million 50% ; of them were farmers.
Increase in population came the need to industrialize and transport goods. The most important
transportation was the railroads.
the greatest benefit of the railroad was that it turned the country into a single, expanded market for the
goods.
