Now to start with Germany was one of those countries that went through many ups and downs either because of past historical leaders or economical situations that they had to face. Germany is one of those countries that used to be seen as strong, but also a country that had been through a lot of damage for example because of long lasting wars. It used to base on only agriculture at first and thus that in return had its own advantages as well as many more disadvantages. For instance, one of the main problems and disadvantage they had was the fact that Germany didn’t have enough farms and even those that were on hand were either small or costing too much to be taken care of as have been mentioned in (apworldquig, 2010).

In general Germany before industrialization wasn’t as independent of its self as it got after the expansion of their economy and industrial estates because it didn’t have access to many things compared to what it had after industrialization.
Industrialization is basically when the economy of a specific place or state transforms from a primarily based on agriculture economy to a one of manufacturing goods just as in the case of Germany. Germany’s industrialization up until today doesn’t have a specific date of when it began, though it has been estimated that according to (world history, 2015) Germanys industrialization began a century later than it did in other countries such as England. In which through industrialization, they had the chance to industrialize rapidly, and of course grow in terms of the economy. Up until 1870 Germany was not of a united country properly and that goes back to the struggles of powers in which it was mainly between Prussia and Austria according to (world history, 2015). This
After World War II Germany was left devastated and in ruins. There had been massive destruction of the country’s infrastructure (Bessel 2011), it lacked political structure and economic activity had plummeted. There was a scarcity of food, fuel and housing and Germany was in no condition to clothe or feed its population (O’Dochartaigh 2003).
Industrialization is defined as a process in which a society transforms itself from an agricultural based society to a more manufacturing based society for the mass production of goods and services. This change affected the lives of all people from the end of the Civil War through the 1870s including immigrants, skilled workers, and the wealthiest of classes.
After World War One, Germany was thrown into downward spiral. They were left with a monstrous amount of
The industrial revolution began in England in the 1770s and expanded to areas in Prussia and Bohemia by the 1840s. The scope of industrialization was huge and forever changed the landscape of modern society by increasing production, national wealth, and technological advancement. However, it also resulted
Industrialization occurred in late 1800s and early 1900s. Industrialization impacted society by society being able to manufacture goods and by having opportunities for men, women, and children to have paid jobs. Even though having manufactured goods is a positive impact overall Industrialization is a negative impact on society because of the horrible working conditions, child labor, and tenement buildings.
Industrialization was an important era where the economy started to develop new machines, factories, and more labor productivity. A time where hand made objects were being replaced by assembly lines and machines. This era started to develop a lot of labor productivity, this made the population increase and made immigrants come from all over the world to work for very long hours and gain very little. This development caused monopolies to be created and take control over labor. It benefited the monopolies because they were gaining a lot of money by their businesses but for the workers it was a disaster because their income wasn't enough to support a whole family. During these time of the era is when child labor began increasing because they had
During the industrialization children would work over ten hours, most adults today don’t work for more than eight hours. Industrialization is the growth of the economy during the 1800’s, which started in the United States. Industrialization is when a country develops its industries and the effect are positive on the country’s economy. It brings more products to the consumers for a cheaper price and more jobs to the people. It has a negative effect on the worker, usually they work on bad working conditions, little wages, and long hours.
The industrialization of England paved the way for the German industrialization even though it started a century later. Germany did not become industrialized until after England because they did become a unified political society until late into the 19th century. The Germans were forced to find its own solutions to recreate the achievements of England. In 1834, trades between the German states were eliminated and it paved the way for bigger industry. Germany imitated and profited from the lessons learned from the British Industrialization.
Imagine a court in the 1900s where all the nations of Europe were gathered around to finally end the current conflict and possibly all future wars. Tension built up in each country as each nation signed a treaty that would promise this goal. However, this treaty only caused even more conflict. Thus, one might ask themselves, In what ways did the Treaty of Versailles lead to World War II? The Treaty of Versailles created tension and anger in different countries that it helped cause World War II.
Germany’s economic situation plummeted after World War I because of the reparations the country paid, along with the disarmament of its military and cease on all military production (Garrison). Germany was desperate for help,
Industrialization occurred between the late 1800s and early 1900s. During this time period, America was tremendously changing. This was the age of machines and electricity being formed and developed. The first automobile, light bulb, and steam engine were all invented. However, what people might consider these as all positive, industrialization had an overall negative impact on American society. For example, working conditions for workers were beyond dreadful, while their tenements they lived in after a 16 hour work day were atrocious, and then having immigrants come in and trying to steal jobs was just unimaginable.
The political, economical, and social order of the Germanic states in the nineteenth century was in a state of chaos and disarray. Politically, the states had the desire of becoming unified and had the possibility to do so if it had not been for fear and neglect to follow through. Economically, the states were in a time of hardships with poor growth development in the fields and were also going through the time of the Industrial Revolution with changes to their everyday lives. Socially, the Germanic states were divided into a feudal system that was determined by birth status and wealth. The middle class, made up of scholars and students, and aristocracy had shared the same fear of the commoners’ revolt due
Germany had very low employment rates in this time and it made it even harder to get back to a stable economy. In this time a lot of people had no jobs so this also did not help Germany because companies were going out of business. This directly led to the decline of Germany's economy. When having no business’s running the country as no money coming in and can not send anything out.
Germany, a country rich in culture and heritage, yet plagued by the fallout of World War I and World War II, has progressed to become the centerpiece of the European Union and the world’s third richest economy. The first German Empire dates back to the Roman Empire starting in the 8th century AD. During the Middle Ages the German Empire fended off many attacks against their soil from the Hungarians and the Slavs. Fighting and power struggles continued until the 1400’s, when the modern world gradually came into existence with intellectual, economic and political changes.
Along with every other nation around the globe, Germany has its own unique past. From the days previous to Bismarck to present time, the Germans have undergone significant trials and tribulations. Unfortunately for Germany the world will forever equate German history with Hitler and the Third Reich. As educated people, we need to be able to get past this stigma and appreciate the Germans for who they truly are. After the ending of the Second World War, Germany was divided in two: a free western Germany, and the communist East Germany. West Germany flourished while East Germany struggled to breathe under the heavy shadow of the Soviet Union. In 1990, after the Berlin Wall fell, Germany finally became one again with the union of East
