The industrial Revolution overall began in Britian in the 18th century before spreading elsewhere. This brought along social changes that both helped and left Britain in trouble. Due to an increase of food growth the percentage of needed farmers decreased. After the Enclosure movement many farmers were landless and moved to urban areas such as Manchester and Liverpool to work in the growing industries. Britian's growing cotton industry resulted in the inventions such as the spinning jenny (invented in the 1760s) and the water frame (invented in 1769) increased production. Britain's many seaways also set them up to be able to import raw materials and export finished goods.
