How might you situate the industrial revolution in the long history of humankind?

History
1 answer:
stealth61 [152]3 years ago
8 0
While the first human ancestors emerged roughly 5 to 7 million years ago, the time of humans incorporates a very small amount of time over world history. If world history were to be looked at as a clock, humans make up less than one minute of that clock. Humans however, have altered the earth more than any other time period at any given time, as humans learned how to settle down, domestic both plants and animals, and control the environment to suit our needs. That was greatly altered once the industrial revolution started in the late 18th century, by which the world population spiked from just over 1 billion in 1800 to over 7 billion people today. Through technological innovation and growth in population, the spread and sharing of ideas and events have become quicker making globalization a new phenomenon. Urbanization took place as a result, and for the first time more people began to dwell and move to cities than live in agriculture. Changes to the ecosystem have occurred as well from an over consumption of resources and burning of fuels into the air that has rapidly accelerated global warming. While the industrial revolution is only a small spec in the history of humankind (occurred from the late 18th century until the mid 19th century), it created extremely drastic changes that continue to alter the world we live in and the societies we function in going into the future.

Answer:

B. arrive in Asia; arrive in the Americas

Explanation:

The Homo Sapiens has started off in Africa. As the numbers were increasing, climate was changing, and the resources were becoming less and less, the species started to migrate out if its cradle. The migration was going from Africa to the Middle East initially, as well as in Europe through Gibraltar.

Gradually, the Homo Sapiens managed to take over the territory of the Neanderthals, and it started to spread out more and more across Eurasia. The migrations didn't stopped there though, but the humans continued through the islands of Southeast Asia and eventually reached Australia, later continuing in the Pacific Islands.

Part of the populations that lived in Eastern and central Siberia started migrated in few waves through the Bering Strait in North America, moving south and reaching Central and South America.
