Industrial Revolution In The 1800's

Throughout the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, much was changing within the American society. The enlightenment brought with it a new way of thinking and new religious values; there was also the issue of women’s rights or lack thereof, as women began to considerably have less and less rights. Lastly, another big change in American society had great deal to do with the industrial revolution and new innovations and way of life.

Think about your life for one second: you communicate with people, travel, make purchases, and utilize those commodities. But have you ever wondered what made those things possible? After all, you go to the store to buy things you need. You drive a car to work and to visit your friends. If you need to talk to someone, you simply pick up your phone or computer. However, none of this would be possible without a means of communication, factories to manufacture the products you need, places to work, and ways to travel and transport goods. And what made these possible? The answer is the Industrial Revolution, which started in Europe around the year 1730. A revolution is a major change or turning point in something. The Industrial Revolution

America had a huge industrial revolution in the late 1800’s. The process was slow, but many changes were made. Americans found it more profitable to make a living on a farm. There were many changes in our nation like new technology, a lot of immigrants into our country , and different/new views on our government. All of these factors helped to promote a huge industrial revolution.

The 1800's in the United States of America was an era of change, conflicts with Native Americans and lynching still was around, but the United States Of America was striving in the Industry. The industrial revolution. With the industrial revolution , people in Chicago had more jobs but it came with a price, Exploration, Encounter and Exchange, Exploration of better labor conditions , Encountering labor hour conflicts and wages , Exchanging labor revolution. After the Haymarket riot many will be inspired to explore better labor conditions , thus making conditions better for workers

The Industrial Revolution was a key factor in the change of the US for the better. There were many people that invented many useful inventions such as the cotton, the steam engine and many others. The revolution had a huge impact on the thinking power of people to invent things or to reinvent other people's inventions that could be changed for the better by making it faster and do more things at once. This Revolution sparked many people in the north and the south to advance their technologies and work hard to better their lives. Inventions such as cotton Gin, Steam engine and various other innovative creations during the late 1700’s and early 1800’ transformed American life in the South and North.

It seems that automation is the one thing that drastically will cause problems for the future, but also the one thing no one wants to address. Hearing it from business leaders it is obvious that this future is coming quickly and there needs to be drastic changes in how we think about work and what work is. You have an entire generation not wanting to adapt to the future and if they don't they might not make it. Trump seems to be encouraging development (which he should in my option) but offers no help or even a strategy for his base of workers (uneducated white voters) that are going to get hit the worst by this. This is vastly different from industrialization of the Late 1800’s. Jobs like manufacturing that has been around since the dawn of

In the 1800s the United States has an industrial revolution. Inventors were making all kinds of machines. Some machines were the steam engine, the telegraph and factories. Steamboats allowed people to get from New York City to Albany in 62 hours. The Erie Canal was a canal that connected the Great Lakes and the Hudson river. Railroads were being built all over the country. The United States wanted to grow more and went to war with Mexico to get California and New Mexico. After they won the war and got the land people found gold in California. People from all over went to California to get the gold. This showed that the country grew by getting new land and growing the population.

In the 1800's through the 1900's machines and manufacturing in factories became big. So big in fact 65% of the population were farmers, then it shrunk to 25%. This was called industrialization.

The industrialization that occurred in the northern United States during the mid-to- late 1800's drastically changed the face of the working class and the urban landscape. "These years were some in which science and invention progressed rapidly and created a base for growth in all phases of the economy – transportation, communication, agriculture, mining, and manufacturing" (Axinn & Stern, 2005, p. 84). During the war there was an increase in the output of war goods and an increase in prices of food and clothing which encouraged industrialization. Since the demand for labor increased, there was influx of both immigrants from other countries and migrants from rural to urban areas. Industrialization, in conjunction with territorial expansion

Industrilization began in the late 1700s throught the 1800's and this was a huge change for the U.S. This also became an incredible part to America in the early to mid 1800's. Technology and machines made production of new goods easier for businesses but industries that were new needed easier and efficient ways to bring in raw materials. They needed to bring these materials to the factories and transport the items to new markets but they needed workers to help dp all of this work.

The industrial revolution definitely shaped how the world and how businesses today work and operate. It started at first by showing new uses for things previously thought to only have one use or be practically useless - such as oil, coal, and iron - then quickly moved on to create things that most people today couldn’t live without. Before that age, companies worked at a snail’s pace, for they depended on human workers and couldn’t mass produce any of their products. After a while, businesses began thriving due to advancements in mass production and efficiency of machine workers. However, these businesses began practices that were simply ruthless, and these are the exact practices that have shaped how America handles large-scale companies today.

The industrial time was good and bad at the same time for every working man that only had one skill that they had to be able to work at their job. It was as well for a time of great opportunities in the work field. The Industrial revolution boom gave an increasing amount of power over to the Americans and the machines that they are producing. The Industrial revolution was a massive change of everyone worldwide affect a lot of men, women and children in the world. It seems that the world was being reborn into a mechanical place of, change for country’s world to view.

The industrial revolution started in Britain. Inventions of machines started to arise to complete tasks more efficiently and easier. The British industrial revolution led America to its own revolution. America’s transportation revolution greatly changed the future. Steamboats were invented and canals were created for the steamboats to decrease the time spent on travel. Railroads were also extremely important because they were even faster than the newly invented steamboat and twice as fast as a stagecoach. Urban growth also sparked as a result from the transportation revolution. Mass production took America by storm. Wood clocks, farm machinery and sewing machines all had many different parts and with the mass production of interchangeable parts

America has been expanding and growing since its birth out of Great Britain. The Industrial Revolution has been an influence in the American life since it first in the 1700s. “Most families did not have enough to sell at the market- they had just enough for their own needs.” Up until the factories started booming and employment rates skyrocketed, people really couldn’t become wealthy and live a decent life. As the ways of farming grew the English at the time began to use up more and more land efficiently. “Unusable swamplands could be drained and used for crops.” That’s absolutely amazing that in this era they could turn swamps into areas to raise more crops so they can naturally make more money at the markets and become a bit wealthier. Farming is one of the most important lively hoods of mankind; no matter what argument anyone tries to make. If we didn’t have farming and agricultural production we wouldn’t have all the different sorts of food products we do, nor would they be as abundant. Life would be like it was before the Industrial Revolution came about and most of us would still be growing our own food and barely scraping by in life. With all this agricultural expansion of the time population in England start expanding drastically as well. Thanks to population growth people started to worry more about new inventions and producing stuff for us to make our day to day lives easier than we could have ever before. With all the technological advancements leading up to

The Industrial Revolution was the quintessence of capitalistic ideals; it bred controversy that led to Karl Marx’s idea of communism as a massive grass roots reaction to the revolution’s social abuses. Firstly, the Industrial Revolution featured the construction of machines, systems and factories that allowed goods to be manufactured at a faster rate with a lower cost. The seed drill made it so there could be “a semi-automated, controlled distribution and plantation of wheat seed”(Jones 2013). Secondly, there was a great social and economic divide between the wealthy owners and the poor workers, which gave rise to the mass’s vulnerability to the advent of extreme socialism. Figures of authority severely oppressed their employees by giving them insufficient pay, a treacherous work environment, and even making some children work more than 12 hours per day (Cranny 150). Finally, far right capitalism created a brutal boom and bust cycle of economics that made, for the multitude at the bottom, a perpetual nightmare of poverty and death. People responded to this social situation by taking part in violent protests; oppression sires rebellion. The Industrial Revolution was the chassis of great imagination and progress of political, economic, and social force that still affects this world today.
