         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Wealth: before the revolution: mostly controlled by upper classes. Poverty among majority.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp;after the revolution: The development of factories provided more jobs created greater employment opportunities and that increased wealth and prosperity. Also the middle class was expanded by then.<br>2. Urban and rural population: before the revolution:most people lived in the countryside, engaged in industry and agriculture.&nbsp;<br>After the revolution: the process of urbanization was accelerated. The factories were gradually concentrated, and the United Kingdom gradually formed many new industrial areas and industrial cities, with almost the same number of manual workers and factory workers.</div><div>As more and more rural people enter cities and towns, the status of cities in the country's social and economic life has become increasingly important.</div><div>One example is Manchester used to be a small town with 28,000 inhabitants in 1780. By 1850, the population had increased to more than 300,000.<br>3. Before the revolution:Heavy manual labor, suffering from poor harvests and hunger; Plagued by pestilence and sickness; Tortured by so much unexpected pain. At that time, rural production methods were very backward. Farmers use ancient wooden tools to work intensively, as they have done for centuries. Iron was much more valuable and seldom used. In Europe, where potatoes were not yet known, there was far less land to plow than there is today. There were vast tracts of wilderness, swamps, prairies and forests, common pastures had not been divided into single fields, and wire fences had not been invented.<br>After the revolution:More goods are available and cheaper than in the past. However, increasing the demand for goods means the consumption of raw materials and environmental pollution. With the increased adoption of mass production techniques, cultural characteristics in food, clothing, housing, entertainment, and lifestyle have become standardized in several parts of the world.<br>4. norms and values: before the revolution: women was considered to stay at home.<br>After the revolution: women started working in the factory and started to have their voice in the society. The value of protecting women's rights increased.<br><br></div>]]></description>
