Industrial Revolution

The Industrial Revolution was a period of time when mass-production and

technology advanced and helped through the community. The Industrial Revolution

helped stabilize because they created ways to make life around the town or community

better itself and easier. This period in time affected many people and their surroundings

in many positive ways. These inventions and fast productions helped many businesses

and community. Over time the inventions were still very useful to us and communities.

Manufacturing saved production time for business and gained them money

faster. Machines like the spinning jenny, cotton gin, or sewing machines got the job

done faster. When the telegraphs and telephones were created, communication was

much easier. This helped the community better communication by sending or receiving

a message at a faster rate. During the industrial revolution, they depend on

transportation to better send their product in far distances. They had to have created

ways for vehicles or boats to pass through railroads, waterways, and roads. This helped

the ideas of advanced transportation ways. Car or boat inventions became easier to

use, advanced, and bigger to fit more. (Boukary)

During this period of time the population started to grow because people were

absorbing products and employment. Due to the population growth, absorbing produce,

and employment the economy grows. This large group of people encourage inventions

and can help to make the inventions better. While the population grew so did the towns

or cities because they had to create more space. Before the Industrial Revolution

middle class people often lived in poor conditions. With all the changes, advanced

technology, and unique inventions the life around for them became better. The Industrial

Revolution was responsible for leaders gaining power over other towns and cities. Their

stable society helped others around to also better themselves.("Man-Made to Machining

- History of the Industrial Revolution.") (Fact Monster from Information Please)

Every invention, and advancements during the Industrial Revolution helped at the

time to better their society. Still, overtime these inventions became more advanced and

have still have helped now. Way back in the 17 and 18 century man created wagons,

and transporting ways to get through railroads or roads for long distance deliveries.

Now, they have advanced cars to get to places faster, and again affordable. In this

period of time communication was through telegraphs, or telephone. Now we have

updated cell phones that don’t require wire, and email that will connect you with

someone else through a computer or cell phone. Mass production was a big part of the

growth within business and society. Mass production has helped now in days to make

more product faster, and inexpensive. (History.com) (Encyclopædia Britannica)

In conclusion, the Industrial Revolution was the beginning of an important time

that changed lives. This period of time helped and continues to help future technology,

and society. I believe these ideas, and technology stabilize the community because life

automatically became easier. Communication around was simpler to do although cities

grew. The economy took off, making other communities look up to certain leaders and

helpers of Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution wasn’t just a small period of

time. These inventions are still very useful after many years still making life very

unchallenging.
