industrial revolution

The Industrial Revolution refers to a time when new machinery was invented, leading to an expansion and growth in industry. This process began in Britain but soon spread to other parts of Europe.

The origins of the Industrial Revolution can be traced to the 16th century. There were several new inventions in the 17th century and more in the 18th and 19th centuries. By the early 19th century, these began to lead to a total change in the way of life. Factories replaced trees and meadows. New factory towns emerged. Smoke from the factories often polluted these towns and people lived in unhealthy conditions.
