The Industrial Revolution (18-19th Century)


Introduction to some of the elements of the Industrial Revolution, more on this subject to come!

The economic developments of the 1800s saw the development of agrarian and handicraft economies in Europe and America transform into industrial urbanised ones.

The term to describe this phenomenon would be known as the ‘Industrial Revolution’…

  1. It’s funny how it says “the machines used in farming meant farm workers could move to the city” but in reality they were forced out by the government and they had to live in the worst parts of the city, entire families forced to work in factories cos they lost their farming jobs to a set of spinning cogs and wheels

  2. They lose their fortune's faster than the industrial revolution can institute a special divergence so ultimately it's just a carcinogenic production measure choking out our dirt ball of resources. 🤷‍♂️

  3. The industrial revolution fucked everything up… Everybody moved to the city, where self sufficiency was out of the question. Half the world still provides for themselves as best they can in a do it yourself kind of way, but the first wall has slums where people have to live.

  4. In Britain from 1800 to 1900.
    20,000 Waterwheels decreased in number.
    Windmills decreased in number.
    Englishman Thomas Newcomen's 1,500 Atmospheric Pumps disappeared.
    Scotsman James Watt's 500 Steam Engines and their descendants increased in number to 10,000,000.
    So for every SINGLE Waterwheel in 1800 there were now 500 Steam Engines in 1900 !!!
    That's an increase in Power availability for the whole country of 500 times !!! And consequently in productive capacity. In one human lifetime.
    And no need for a flowing river of water for them either.
    Thousands more Factories, Steamships, Locomotives and whatever else we needed Power for.
    This WAS the Industrial Revolution!
    It was a Power Revolution! And it was all due to only one single Invention, James Watt's Invention of the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Powered Engine.
    Nothing to do with Spinning and Weaving and all those other so-called Revolutions.

  5. Please can people shut up about climate change and 'Oh no we're all gonna die cause we're increasing the temperature' It is all simply brainwash crafted by people to scare you. People's brains are so small

  6. The Industrial Revolution was all down to Steam Power.
    It was a Power Revolution.
    Imagine what the Industrial Revolution would have been like without Steam Power.
    It wouldn't have happened.

  7. The invaluable insights in this content are transformative. A book I read with like themes reshaped my perspective. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

  8. There are no factories in history of America. There was the American Revolution not the Industrial Revolution. The Native Americans did not follow British Concepts of work until the 1950s. Then office buildings were starting to be built in Manhattan in New York City so the concept of work was started. There were no boss and secretary setup until 1963. That was the boss of a new business of being a CEO of TV Stations like NBC and ABC and CBS in New York City. The Boss and Secretary was a British Takeover of God's Created TV Stations on paper only. The CEO was a Boss and his Secretary was his Wife. Nobody worked until they had to take over as Government Staff in 1987 when We as Hollywood Royals started as university students. There were no other Work Jobs except as Police and Firefighters as kids. The Secretary was a Job made for Denise Leclerc as my mother to make it look like she was employed to fool me as a kid. The job was a shampoo company as Beauty Product of Blackhead as a way to say the Schwartzkopf company was legit. It was an Evil Spirit created product. I would get everything created in my life and was only fooled by jobs as people would Clone parents and they would pretend to work all day. Nobody really worked at jobs at all. Everybody was put out to work at jobs in office buildings all day every day as making it look busy as a city. I did not mind as I went into Movies and Music and was a Biologist out doing field work in nature to be happy. The Mountbatten Monarchy was trying to fool me but I did not succumb to a job as a lifestyle at all but thought other people were choosing that lifestyle to get a big house and a fancy car and expensive vacations. I just hopped around and would enjoy the car rides and bus rides and train rides as transportation that other people seemed to hate as Commuters. I don't know why people would not live a lifestyle they would enjoy instead of torturing themselves at a job of menial labour for money. I met handsome men as Knights who worked as Biologists too and enjoyed nature and they were my friends when I was working. There was a party atmosphere at work. So we had a good time together. I worked 7 years only and enjoyed it. The daily commute I did not mind either. The transportation system was good in Toronto. I had a car when I needed one as I got paid and bought a car as a grad student working to do field work. I could have had a car created by God too. I tried that once but it was removed by a Spirit of the Mountbatten Monarchy. So I stole their Rolls Royce in retaliation as a joke. They were running a War. Two can play at that game.
