Industrilization In The 1800's

Throughout the years America has been chosen as a destination point for immigrants. In the colonial era majority of migrants came from the Northern European countries. In 1770 during the Revolutionary War immigrant numbers decreased, but rapidly increased in the 1840s-1850s. New immigrants mostly came from Ireland and Germany than the European countries. Many immigrants settled in New York City. By the 1860s New York became the home to over 1 million residents, but half were immigrants with American-born children. When the civil war ended there were many jobs that needed to be filled so European immigrants filled those positions. Approximately there were 25 million immigrants that arrived in America from the Northern countries between 1866-1915.

Industrialization began in the 1790’s and continued all the way through the the early 1900’s. While industrialization was evolving, so was the ideology that came with factories. Industrialization began during the Revolutionary Era when Samuel Slater created the cotton mill and these innovations continued all the way through the Gilded Age along with the creation of labor unions. Industrialization had the reputation of opportunity, which is why so many people came to the US and caused industrialization to evolve so quickly. As people came to the cities and to the United States of America, the industrialization progressively created dirt and filth within the cities. As industrialization spread through America it brought

The late 1800s saw many changes that occurred because of rapid industrialization, changes that affect us even today. Before the Civil War, America was just beginning to explore the frontier, develop railroads, and agriculture was just barely starting to become mechanized. The United States was only about half-way through it’s own industrial revolution when the war started, but the effects of industrialization after the war were so great that they are still seen today. One of the biggest consequences of the rapid industrialization in America was the change to a consumer-type economy.

In 19th century America there were many changes in industrialization and capitalism which impacted the working class. One such change was the rise of unskilled labor; before the industrial revolution most people if not employed in agriculture relied on skilled trade. Meaning people had to have training and skill in order to create merchandise of a higher quality. However, with the rise of industrialization large factories began to take over the production of goods. These big businesses also began to turn to unskilled labor due to the fact that it was easier than hiring skilled laborers. Factories employed unskilled laborers because they were cheap and easily replaceable. This allowed factories to significantly grow in size and dominate the market. Such domination of the market forced the majority of smaller business to close their doors due to the fact that the factories could produce a higher quantity of goods for a smaller price. This affected the working class because their options for employment quickly decreased to the extent that their only option was to work for these big businesses. Due to the fact that unskilled laborers were easily disposable, large factories began to take advantage of their employees. Big businesses would take advantage of their workers by forcing them to work in unsanitary, unhealthy, and even dangerous conditions for very little pay. The life of a working class citizen was a difficult one, and the lives of these workers are reflected in the

Industrialization in the Unites States occurred between 1850 and 1950. It was the approach from the United States to become larger with enhanced technology to produce a life which cost less and was more efficient. While some might dispute that Industrialization had primarily positive consequences for society because of an abundance of job opportunities, it had a negative impact on society. Therefore, industrialization’s negative effects were atrocious working conditions, children’s little or no education, and pollution from factories.

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 immigration period from 1860 onwards was one of the largest population movement in the U.S history. Many immigrants departed from their Western and Eastern European countries and also Asia. These immigrants came to the United States for a variety of reasons. The main reasons why included war or political reasons. For example, Germans had the most immigrants from Western Europe moved as there was wars going on. Immigrants also moved as their family had already left and settled in America, so their family members fled to America and joined them.

Around 1815 to 1865 there was another huge wave of immigration. They most of immigrants came from northern and western Europe. In the 1840s, almost half of America’s immigrants were from Ireland that impoverished settled near their point of arrival in cities along the east coast. Between 1820 and 1930, around 4.5 million Irish migrated to the United States (loc.gov). Still in the 19th century, 5 million German immigrants arrived in the United States. According to the census of 2000, more Americans claimed German ancestry than any other group. By the early 1850s, around 25,000 Chinese had migrated to the U.S. (emmigration.info) lured by news of the California gold rush. With a large number of newcomers’ immigrants, the native population became

The history of immigration runs strong in the U.S because almost all of us are descendants of immigrants. The first major waves of immigrants came around the colonial era, seeking a new life. These colonial era immigrants came to America for economic reasons mostly, or greater opportunities. Though most of these colonial immigrants lived in poverty, working as servants, similar to modern immigrants.

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

Immigration to the Americas started prior to the 19th century. The first Immigrants who came to the Americas where slaves who were brought here against their will. America

There have been several major waves of immigration throughout the history of the United States. The first dated from 1783 to the early 1800s. Between 1820 and 1870, there was a rapid increase in the number of immigrants who came from northern and Western Europe. "About 7.5 million arrive, mainly from northern and western Europe (especially Great Britain, Ireland and western Germany)." (American Immigration Timeline)

During the 18th century to the mid 19th century many aspects of life were changing in Europe. The Industrial Revolution had major impacts on many areas of life. The reason for this was because people in Europe were beginning to realize that if they could make products to sell to people in large quantities they could make a lot more money. This drove factories to pop up all over the landscape and for people to move into the cities from their farms in search of new jobs. With the rise of factories manufacturing quickly became much more productive. The Industrial Revolution marks a major turning point in history. The Industrial Revolution began when the invention of the steam engine altered the way objects were produced. The spinning "jenny" played a large role in the changing of this. During the Industrial Revolution many aspects of European culture changed including economy, politics, social status, and industrial efficiency.

Immigration is a problem that the United States has faced for many years. Immigration to the United States started around the year 1600 during the first European settlements on the east coast. The first successful English colony started in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia.Once tobacco was found to be a profitable crop, many plantations were established along the Chesapeake Bay.This began the first and longest era of immigration, lasting until the revolution in 1775. During this time settlements grew from English in the New World to the British America.Large numbers of young men and women came along as indentured servants to the colonies who needed help on the farms,or shops.They were provided housing,food,clothing but did not receive wages.At
