During the industrial revolution there was a spectacular increase in population, mainly due to the fall in the death rate caused by the improvement of hygienic, sanitary and food conditions that was largely reflected in the reduction of infant mortality. In this period, the first vaccinations are born and the sewage and wastewater treatment systems are improved. A more abundant and regular diet, not subject to fluctuations in crops, lowered the incidence of epidemics and made possible the almost complete disappearance of catastrophic mortality, especially infant mortality.

These scientific advances, added to the new job opportunities offered by the big cities, produced an unprecedented movement of people. These people from the countryside moved en masse to the big cities.

How did the londan underground railway become a huge sucess?explain?

asambeis [7]

London Underground Railway was a huge success because of the following reasons I'm telling you ---
1. The population of London increased dramatically because many people migrated from villages to the city in search of work.

3. Some form of transport was needed so that people could commute from home to work and back home, and the Underground Railway helped in that a lot, because it was the only mode of transport which carried a large number of people in a short span of time.
4. Although the railway was discouraged earlier because people complained of suffocation, it became a huge success because it was the only way of connecting their homes with their workplace.

Explain the causes and consequences of China’s adoption of communism.

pychu [463]

CHINESE Communism did not originate as a direct result of activities carried on in China by the Third International. It owed its first beginnings to Chinese students returned from Soviet Russia.
