One of the most significant effects of the Industrial Revolution was the rapid growth of cities.
People moved from rural areas to urban centers in search of employment in factories and industries.
This mass migration led to the expansion of urban areas, often resulting in overcrowding, poor living conditions, and the development of slums.
The transition from agrarian economies to industrial economies fundamentally altered the nature of work
Traditional artisanal crafts were replaced by mechanized production methods in factories.
Workers, including men, women, and children, labored long hours in often dangerous conditions for minimal pay
The Industrial Revolution was fueled by technological innovations such as the steam engine, mechanized textile production, and the development of iron and steel industries.
These advancements revolutionized manufacturing processes, increased productivity, and facilitated the mass production of goods.
The adoption of new technologies also spurred further innovation and laid the groundwork for subsequent technological revolutions.
