Wheelan and Co. proclaims, “There is scarcely a country on the face of the habitable globe into which the fruits of its industry have not penetrated”(9).As countries began to industrialize, people were in need of more products and materials that could not be provided by their home country. Merchants began to import and export more goods in order to acquire the necessary resources for industrialization, so trade greatly increased.

...After the Civil War, a wave of industrialization introduced new economic trends to America; the growth of railroads allowed for expanding markets and easy transportation, and the use of steel, electricity, and other resources created a foundation that was able to foster a Second Industrial Revolution.

...As Europe entered the mid-19th Century it found itself growing in new ways that, before did not seem possible. The 19th century brought industrialization which would change how society and the economy functioned. With the initiation of the Industrial Revolution life declined for men, women, and children, through the increase of regulations, poverty, health problems, and the slow dissolution of the once tight family unit ideal. The Industrial Revolution resulted with many individuals having their work replaced by faster and more efficient machinery. Prior to industrialization, one of the systems that ran much of the economy was the putting out system. According to Alexandre Frederic (the Duke of La Rochefoucauld) in one of his writings, the putting out system was family run and a manual production which occurred in the home, once the product was completed, it was then prepared for trading which the family was also in charge of (Document 5, 153-154). The putting out system was a system that required the whole family to work together and do their...

...The industrialization had many negative effects in society. people who owned businesses wanted to make more money, so they started hiring children, even though they had a very low pay for their jobs. While some might argue that industrialization had positive consequences for society because more jobs became available it was actually a negative thing for society. Industrialization negative effects were the child labor being employed, the unequal pay for workers, and the damaged environment from pollution. Children had always worked, especially in farming. But factory work was hard. A child with a factory job might work 12 to 18 hours a day, six days a week, to earn a dollar. “C: And what time did it come on?

This revolution began in England in the early 1700’s having a major impact on people all over the world. In the mid 1700’s it eventually led to America and they several other places as well. England had several resources that were strongly needed for industrialization. They needed coal, iron, cotton, access to water, and shipbuilding (Doc 1.). All of those things were used to dramatically change how things work. For example, they used iron for building new machines such as the Spinning Jenny, the Water Frame, and the Cotton Gin. Those machines were most important for increasing the textile production, the more things improved, the faster things got (Doc 6.).

...Michael Sylvia World Civ DBQ Mrs. Garno 1/30/13 Europe was a colonizing machine throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. After Europe’s leap to industrialization and growth in population, the abundance of food was drastically decreasing. This inspired Europe to begin an imperialistic sparked Europe’s approach. Nonetheless, Europe’s growing empire was striking fear on to surrounded non western countries. Europe’s motivation for colonizing all over the world was sparked by three main topics: military factors, political factors and economic factors. Military was an enormous factor in imperialism. Leaders and countries often felt that the only way to remain safe and secure was to create naval bases around the globe. Naval bases were a “win-win” situation because the bases could also be used as merchant bases and trading ports. This meant Europe was able to increase both money and prestige due to the fact that their products were now available literally worldwide. Naval/merchant bases weren’t the only incentive to conquer; prestige and fear were sought after also. Both prestige and fear gave Europe a “leg-up” on its opponents due to basic human nature. Europe’s efforts to create fear by building naval bases and expanding their empire made Europe’s opponents feel weak and full of anxiety. This is very evident in Document 4, “Now, the French come, with their powerful weapons of war, to cause dissension among us. We are weak against them; our commanders and soldiers have been vanquished…”...
