Industrial Revolution
 * __What do you think are the pros and cons to the spread of industrilization?__**

- Lots of new jobs offered, economy balances out a bit - Provided advanced technology - Had the majority of the people thining more modern
 * Pros of Industrilization**:

- Poor working conditions for those who work - Unfair working hours - Higher cost of living
 * Cons of Industrlization**:

1. Some people in the corner of the picture are having 'break' time, they are eating. 2. The people who are working have no real protective gear on. 3. The place is crowded with people. 4. Ropes hanging from the season.
 * I see:**

1. No real room/place to go to in order to have a break from work, all were crowded in the same place. The people who owned the factory clearly were not thinking of the workers/selfish. 2. Poor working conditions, dangerous/the workers can get work easily. This was one of the biggest reasons why workers went on strike before labor laws were created. 3. Disorganized, chaotic working enviroment, not safe at all. Hired too many people 4. The factory wasn't very well built/nor was it fixed up before production had came in for the factory. Extremely dangerous cause the workers are working with very hot things which could cause a fire or fatal injury. Very poor working conditions.
 * It means:**

Factory workers are faced with dangerous and disorganized working conditions, there is no real break room either. The floors are dirty and the ceiling is falling apart, the factory is crowded and the workers aren't wearing any protective gear while handling extremely hot material.
 * Summary:**

[|Ranking the Factors of Success] As technology got more advanced for example, the cotton gin and the seed drill and more, there was no longer much a meed for workers. Farmers had learned better ways to raise their live stock to be healthier and strong, as well as the seed drill was an invention that made planting vegetables and crops much more easier for there was not much a need for a lot of manual labor. Farmers had then combined their lands together to create large acres of farm, this process of combining land was called enclosure movement. However, this did not work in favor for many of the farmers, some could not handle the fact that the old style way of working was no longer effective anymore, so they moved to the city to find jobs in factories instead. The shift from cottage industries to factories had offered many more jobs to the people, which had made the cities and towns thrive. As jobs were more available to people in factories, it had also caused people to lose their jobs if they had worked in the farm industry. Textile workers had often moved to cities in search for new jobs. The work of slaves had been more easier since they did not have to do such hard labor anymore since the cotton gin, they didn't have to painstakenly remove little specks of dirt and thorns from the cotton. The people don't have any money, nor do they have enough people to work to provide for the family, so the only way the could provide for the family would be putting the children to work in cold mines so they could have enough money for the well being of the family.
 * Explain, in detail, what effect changes in Agriculture had on the industrial revolution **?
 * Predict, what effect might the shift from Cottage industries to factories have on the lives of textile workers and on towns and cities **.
 * Evaluate how you think people justified the use of children doing hard labor in cold mines **.

Spread of the Industrial revolution beyond England > > 1. Other countries were influenced by Britain's technology. This was important because other countries had gained from Britain's inventions were leaked which had helped speed up the spread of industrilization in other parts of the world. > 2. Countries like the US, Western Europe, and Japan had started industrilizing with railroads, this was important because this meant that other countries were starting to modernize as well as industrilize. > 3. Resistance to industrilization in countries seeing the squalor of British cities. Many countries had delayed industrilizing which had helped Britain advance faster and get ahead of most of the competition. > 4. Britain tried to stop their technology from spreading, by Britain trying to stop their inventions from leaking out, they were initially trying to avoid having competition which would prevent them from being the supieror economic power. > 5. Competition for markets to getting to Asia and Africa, this had helped because it had allowed more places to invest, which means more money, and money was the most important thing at the time. 1. Industrial ideas would spread because of the begining of railroads. Railroads would mainly help support communication and trade methods. 2. Places like Japan that would rapidly improve their ways of life not wanting to be left behind which would hopefully help incrwease the number of ways to improve soceity. 3. Places like Belguim survived on certain imports such as coal and iron which would help create trading systems with other places to help keep everyone at peace and happy. 4. Resources passed through the RR would help economies grow and idustrialazation spread. 5. Growing competition for better lifes or to be the best and strongest nation would cause many to fight over land and when there would soonbe no more land would cause fights and help begin WW1. When the Industrial Revolution had come around, and advantage to it was that it had brought many job opportunties, however, a disadvantage to this was that there was a higher demand of food and housing.

 * Paragraph**: Britain was the leading country that was thriving and benefiting extremely well from their technology advancements, however, there was a constant game of who could produce more money or who can be the more advanced at the time. Belgium soon became the economic superior and had surpassed Britain's steel production. Japan, the underdog, had rocked the nation by defeating Russia's navy and army, proving everyone who had doubted their advancements that Japan was perfectly capable of industrial power. Railroads had aided many of the countries at this time.

[|Pros + Cons of Capitalism and Communism]

** If you were the financial adviser for a country, which economic view would you support and why? Use evidence from your reading and notes to support your answer **.If I were a financial adviser for a country, I would choose capitalism as my economic system. I feel that, even though not everyone is entirely equal (pay, religion, housing, etc), capitalism gives the people a chance to be 'creative' and to 'express themselves' rather than having something already set in stone for them. There's no unfair distrubition of pay for working, for example, if someone works 5 hours and another works 20 and they get the same pay, like what communism would do, then it wouldn't be fair. But for capitalism you get paid for how much work you do and how much time you put in. Capitalism motivates our society to be bold and to express their thoughts and opinions.

__ **Read //Cities Grow and Change//** in your textbook or in on line book found on pages 275-276 and copy and paste the following questions to answer in your wiki: __ **1. How did cities grow and change in the late 1800s?** Before the industrial revolutions, cities had relied on trade, however, cities had soon advanced by creating actual products out of the raw resources that they would had normally traded off. In order to keep this practice going, cities had built more factories, stores, and officers. Young women from the countryside and Europe had started working in textile companies. Chicago, a city with a population of 30,000, soon had a population of 1.7 million due to the meat packing industry which had lured people looking for work in. Soon enough, banks, office buildings, and homes have been being constructed throughout the city. The downside to this was that pollution had increased due to the smoke that came from the coal that warmed houses. **2. Why did people migrate to cities?** Many people had moved into the cities to escape hunger, political oppression, and discrimination, even though they knew how dirty and polluted the cities were. Most immigrants who had migrated lived in cramped housing when they had first came to the city. Cities had started to create a better plumbing system which had provided citizens cleaner water to drink, toilets, and bathtubs. Fridges, vacuums, and stoves were now becoming more popular due to the fact the electricity had become more advanced, an elevator was invented as well. Underground railroad systems had helped the overcrowding of people and provided a more efficient and faster way of transportation.
