The Industrial Revolution.

The Industrial revolution took place from the 18th and the 19th Century.

This changed the way manufacturing,agriculture,manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology were utilised.

There was growth in income notably for the ordinary class people and with it came a population boom .

In the late 18th Century  manual based labour shifted toward machine based work.

Things began to change in the textile industries and other areas such as coal manufacturing and the use of  different forms of transportation such as  using Canals, Trains, and  better roads, enhancing output of work.

Steam power and water wheels and powered machinery along with metal  machine tools  further increased output which spread across  Western Europe and North America.

 The printing press was invented in the Holy Empire by the German Johannes Gutenberg around 1440, based on existing screw presses. He started out as a blacksmith.. before developing the printing press.
