Industrial Revolution

The industrial revolution happened during the time period of the 18th and 19th century. Different categories such as agriculture, manufacturing, mining and transport had a huge effect on the socioeconomic stature in the United Kingdom. This not only helped the North America but it had a profound effect on almost every daily lives of people. In the beginning part of the 18th century, Great Britain started to be influenced by Machine-Based manufacturing. What started the industrial revolution was the development of iron-making techniques, and the increase of refined coal. Trade expansion was enabled by the introduction of canals. 

The industrial revolution not only helped the economic structure of North America but also shaped the world by allowing different forms of culture to form around the world.
