Revolution

2. Industrial Revolution
It was in the late 18th and 19th
centuries that brought the
introduction of machinery, the use of
steam power, with the growth of
factories, and the mass production of
goods. It began in Britain then spread
to Western Europe, Japan, the United
States, to the rest of the world.

3. Urbanization
It was a shift when more people moved to more
urban areas than small rural areas.
There was a migration of people from rural to
urban during the Industrial Revolution.
The cottage industry was a industry that worked
from their homes.
People moved out of
rural areas to work in
factories to make money.
They didn’t want to
depend on the food and
products they made.

4. Agricultural Revolution
Agricultural Revolution lead to the Industrial
Revolution by providing the skills and tools to
make machinery. People didn’t have to depend
on their crops and move forward.
Crop rotation was
literally that. Crops were
rotated in the same area,
and replanted by
different types of crops
every time.

5. Steam Engine
In 1775 Thomas Savery invented the
steam engine, but later James Watt
improved and took credit for the
steam engine.
It provided a reliable source of power
to factories and shipping.

6. Textiles
Textiles were the first
commodity to boom in the
revolution. It was an industry
that involved making yarn,
cloth and cloths.
Eli Whitney invented the
cotton
The cotton gin, steam engine,
and the loom helped the textile
industry really boom.

7. Bessemer Process
It was a steel making process ware
silicon, carbon, and other
impurities are washed away to get
the iron.
Henry Bessemer came up with this
process.
This made the manufacturing of
steel much cheeper.

8. Pasteurization
Louis Pasteur was a French chemist
and a microbiologist who invented
pasteurization. It killed dangerous
bacteria in milk to make it safer to
drink and sell.

9. Thomas Edison
He invented the light
bulb, the phonograph,
and the kinetoscope.

I readily absorb ideas
from every source,
frequently starting
where the last person
left off.

10. Romanticism
It was a movement in literature and arts that
originated in the late 18th century,
emphasizing inspiration, subjectivity, and the
primacy of the individual.
Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne
