japan focused on colonial control and industrialized based on coal and steel exports. they gained great power and economic prowess from their export focused nature. they did this in order to protect their country and gain more power for military purposes. less for economic presence and more for military defenses. they also revitalized government to include western ideas. two key inventions were automatic power loom in 1867. this revolutionized the textile industry and made work much more efficient and more quality. and silk. they did not create this material but it became the main export for these items which led to their expansion and use all over Asia frequently.

Egypt failed to industrialize. they were a major producer of cotton but were ultimately unable to cultivate an industrialized society. the reasons are unknown but several factors include not having a stable government and not being urbanized enough. when they attempted to industrialize they failed and poverty set in. the area became poor due to the low income average and no urbanization very barren land and not much growth. they focused heavily on cotton export to other countries, and also had textile production which both contributed to their economic power and their attempt to grow.

Africa

industrialization in Africa came from foreign involvement and reliance on natural resources. this depleted the land of Africa and left much waste as well as barren lands. industrialization ultimately failed as a whole and some countries still are not fully developed it is hard to determine if countries were fully industrialized or not however most did have some level of growth. however it was slow due to their heavy reliance on imports and internal trading. two key exports are minerals and oil which both left barren land or mines. they both were very valuable materials and were very prevelent which led to the foreign involvement in order to profit from the materials.
