Effects: The industrialisation improved the lives of many people, by making the government richer and providing more jobs for people it also made the British army the strongest in the world.

Reforms: because of poor conditions in factories, workers organised groups known as unions and demanded reforms. Reform movements happened everywhere, but mostly in the U.K. and the U.S. . They focused on labor rights, social welfare, women’s rights, and laws were set to improve working conditions. in 1842 a law was passed that forbid children under the age of 10 or women to work in coal mines which upset many women as they couldn't make money for their families in 1844 the factory act was passed and it reduced working hours of children 9-13 and required six and a half hours per day of work with three hours of school. In 1847, The Factory Act also known as The Ten Hours Act was created to limit the amount of time women and children were permitted to work in textile mills.  On the weekdays, women and children were limited to working no more than 10 hours in a single day because of this Act.  On weekends, they only had to work for up to eight hours, but they did not have to work at all on Sundays. The Factory Act shortened working hours from up to fifteen hours to only ten hours a day

Technology: technology improved throughout the years and became more efficient in making more products. examples of technological improvements were the flying shuttle which was almost twice as efficient than traditional weavers and the second one is the steam engine.

To keep the secrets of industrialisation Britain forbid engineers, mechanics, and toolmakers from leaving the country.
Samuel slater a British factory worker moved to the U.S. And made a spinning machine which was then called Slater's mill. Moses Brown opened the first factory in the U.S.. Francis C. Lowel and four other men mechanised manufacturing cloth. slater had the idea of hiring entire families instead of individuals.

Effects: Amount of farms decreased but replacing those jobs were factories.

Reforms: More jobs were created with these factories and wages improved as well making more people want to work there and the government make more money and could improve healthcare and other important things needed in society. because of bad conditions in factories, workers organised groups known as unions and demanded reforms. Reform movements happened everywhere, but mostly in the U.K. and the U.S. They focused on labor rights, social welfare, women’s rights, and better factories. The first labor law to come out of the industrial revolution was the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. This law put in action a minimum wage, an overtime pay, and standards for child labor.



Tech: machines got more frequent and created more space for improvement and making them more efficient, reliable, and affordable, as required during this industrialization

French industrialisation was calmer and slower in growth than other countries. France avoided the economic problems caused by industrialisation.

Effect: A market for French products was created in 185 and the government began constructing railroads. It improved the government's money

Reforms: More people now lived in cities working in factories instead of farms, making healthcare more accessible. During the French Revolution, the Le Chapalier law of 1791 was passed to prevent unions or guilds and strikes. On 25 May 1864, the Loi Ollivier was passed to reverse the prohibitions on strikes

Technology:  The technology improved throughout the years and became more efficient and produced more products. Louis Pasteur invented pasteurization which preserves milk in 1864. the first practical sewing machine was made by Barthélemy Thimonnier in 1829.]]> 2022-12-15 17:13:51 UTC https://padlet.com/thorsi007/uiisqy6w6c1lisk2/wish/2422122662 Germany thorsi007 https://padlet.com/thorsi007/uiisqy6w6c1lisk2/wish/2454578090 Disconnected resources slowed industrialisation. industrialisation started in separate regions, f.x. Ruhr. In the 1830s Germany imported British machines and engineers. Many Rich German industrial managers sent their kids to learn industrial management in Britain. Germany built railroads to connect cities strengthening Germany's economy and speeding up industrialisation. In the 1890s Germany exceeded Britain in steel production.

Effects: It improved the government's economy. More people moved into cities and more jobs were created

Reforms: with industrialisation, they improved their army, giving them more modern weapons. National income per capita rose from 352 MKs to 728. Protests and strikes became more frequent in Germany, especially those due to workers’ rights. Germany had set regulations that protected workers against exploitation by the employers, such as a minimum wage, inspections of working conditions, and the abolishment of child labor.

Technology:  it improved throughout the years and became more efficient at making more products. it improved warfare weaponry. One of the inventions was the diesel engine, which changed the world forever.]]> 2023-01-24 12:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/thorsi007/uiisqy6w6c1lisk2/wish/2454578090 Russia thorsi007 https://padlet.com/thorsi007/uiisqy6w6c1lisk2/wish/2454581413 In Russia, nationalism played a key role in the country's move toward industrialisation. At that time, Russia did not have the modern technology and industry necessary to build a military that could compete with Europe's powers. After the assassination of Tsar Alexander II in 1881, his successor, Alexander III, promoted industrial expansion as a way for Russia to gain greater power in Europe.

Effects: People's lives were slightly improved but people were still not treated well.
Reforms: there were no reforms I could find, but serfdom was kind of abolished but instead they  worked in factories with terrible working conditions

Tech: russians didn't really improve a lot of the technology]]> 2023-01-24 12:35:17 UTC https://padlet.com/thorsi007/uiisqy6w6c1lisk2/wish/2454581413
