Write a letter to a friend telling them about the Industrial Revolution. The letter should include:
Lilit [14]

Dear friend.

What are you studying about the industrial revolution and the factors that made it up. as this is a subject I'm very interested in, I decided to help you by talking a little about it. I hope it will be useful for you.

The industrial revolution was a series of changes that occurred in Europe and that modified the production of goods and services that stopped having a more artisanal nature to present an industrial nature with the use of machines and employees to produce the products that started to be produced. on a large scale. The agricultural revolution had an important role in this event, because with the constant purchase of agricultural fields by the bourgeoisie and the use of technology, small farmers were harmed and migrated to the cities, where they became the necessary manpower to operate the machines of the new industries.

The industrial revolution allowed the development of several machines that made the work of the industry more productive and efficient. Among the inventions promoted during the industrial revolution we can mention the steam engine, the telephone, the automobile and the light bulb.

We cannot forget that the Industrial Revolution brought many advantages to society, such as the increase in technologies and the large-scale production of products, allowing the population to have easy access to them. On the other hand, there are also disadvantages such as the reduction of jobs, due to machinery and the degradation of the environment in search of large quantities of raw material.

All these advantages and disadvantages were felt in all the territories where the industrial revolution took place, the disadvantages, however, were felt most strongly in less influential regions, such as the Caribbean, which was highly exploited and usurped few productions that focused on the European public.

I hope that I have given you good information and I am at your disposal to resolve any doubts on the subject.

graciously

MJ.
