Answer: The Industrial Revolution started in the 1760s and ended in the 1840s. The Industrial Revolution started in Great Britain and spread to other places such: as other countries in Europe, the United States, Russia, and Japan. Britain owned colonies throughout the world and used the resources that the colonies provided. Great Britain used the resources to create finished products which were made in factories. These unfinished goods were easy to transport to Britain due to Britain’s geological advantages. Since the factories had to produce more efficiently due to the surplus of unfinished goods they had to upgrade which resulted in countless inventions. Factories had to work harder and needed more workers so child labor was common. Due to all of this, Great Britain industrialized and other countries followed. This was a really important time in history because it is when things started to really improve and change. Sometimes not for the better, but thankfully at the end of the revolution, they made laws to make things more equal. Children under the age of ten could not work. Children and adults pay both increased, kids could only work 8 hours and adults could only work 10. This is way better than when they had to work 24 hours straight.
