The American Industrial Revolution

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many say there isn’t an exact cause of the Revolution. Various components caused this major event in history like less

 disease spreading so more people lived causing a larger workforce. The agriculture movement caused for more food

 production with better equipment so less human hands were needed so those hands could work in factories. And lastly

 trading markets were made so accumulation of money went around the world. This was all very important for the

 Revolution to move forward in around the world.

 

 

          These events progressively moved in the late 18th century, and early 19th century. Aspects of daily life changed dramatically over the years and human society was influenced greatly. Major changes took place in transportation, like cars, trains, and steam boats, and manufacturing, like factories on rivers and by steam instead of residential areas, and agricultures, like plows, seed drill, and steam engine. Natural resources became more important to preserve after using so much of them to make these new inventions. Luckily for America, the country was filled with loads of natural resources.

          But a major problem was factory life, which is why improvements are still made in the work place and is still changing today.
