Explore the Captivating History of the Industrial Revolution

Free History BONUS Inside!

For most of human existence, people lived in a somewhat similar fashion. Everything that has been produced, from food and raw materials to clothing and other finished products, has been done either solely by hand or with some help of animal power. This was the same across the eras and throughout the world, no matter how advanced or backward the various civilizations were. Yet our lives today couldn't be more different. Most of our products are made by machines and mechanical power, allowing for greater productivity and a higher quality of life in general. That advance was made possible by what we today call the Industrial Revolution. Its start in the mid-18th century signalized a slow but unwavering transformation from a handmade manufacturing civilization to a machine-powered industrial society.

It is hard to overestimate how important and impactful this event was. The effects of the Industrial Revolution touched and changed pretty much every aspect of our lives. It not only transformed the technology and production of the entire humankind, but it also ushered social changes, both in class and gender, as well as in demographics and economic advances. At the same time, it was powered by and powering scientific and engineering breakthroughs. The Industrial Revolution was also an essential step in transforming the world into a global village, as it brought significant progress in means of transportation and communication. All that affected how wars were fought, how people lived and died, what kind of art they made, and how they spent their everyday lives. Not only was this change qualitative, but it was also quantitative, as unlike earlier historical events, the Industrial Revolution wasn't limited to a single part of the world. Its effects spread across the globe, affecting almost all of humankind to an extent unseen before.

Because of that, it could be argued that the Industrial Revolution is one of the most critical events in human history, worthy of every atom of our attention. Learning about it will undoubtedly allow us to better understand our past and the world we live in today. This guide will attempt to explore all the aspects of the Industrial Revolution, from its development and evolution to its numerous and various effects on humankind.
