The Industrial Revolution was a period of major mechanisation and innovation that began in Great Britain
during the mid-18th century and early 19th century and later spread throughout much of the world. The first
Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain in the 1700s and 1800s, dominated by the exploitation of coal
and iron, and was a time of significant innovations. It led to many other inventions including the assembly
line, telegraph, steam engine, sewing machine, and internal combustion engine, and left a profound impact
on how people lived and the way businesses operated.
The Industrial Revolution created an increase in employment opportunities. With the advent of factories
during the 18th century, people began working for companies located in urban areas for the first time.
Although the wages were still low, and conditions were harsh, people could earn better than farming. As
more populations migrated to urban areas to search for jobs, there were also significant improvements in city
planning. Education was improved, resulting in groundbreaking inventions such as the sewing machine, X-
ray, lightbulb, calculator. These inventions are in fact still significant today.
The Industrial Revolution also changed the way people worked and lived. It enabled higher productivity in
factories and made life more comfortable at home.
