World History


Check this link for a good review of the impact of the industrial revolution.


The Industrial Revolution began in the 1700s and continued through the early 1900s.

This time was one of the most important periods in the history of human society. Since the discovery and use of agriculture eight to ten thousand years ago, no other event has affected humankind more.

The results of this revolution would completely change the way humans acted. How they worked, the amount and type of goods they bought, the family structure, the social structure, and the way individuals thought were all changed.
