The Second Industrial Revolution is the set of interrelated socio-economic transformations that occurred approximately between 1850-1870 until 1914. During this period the changes went under a strong acceleration. The process of industrialization changed its nature and economic growth varied from model. Technical changes continued to occupy a central position. Technical innovations concentrated, essentially, on new sources of energy such as gas, oil or electricity; new materials and new transport systems (airplane and automobile) and communication (telephone and radio) induced chain transformations that affected the work factor and the educational and scientific system; to the size and management of the companies, to the form of organization of the work, to the consumption, until ending also in politics.

This process took place within the framework of the so-called "first globalization", which meant a progressive internationalization of the economy, and which was increasingly working on a global scale for the transport revolution. This led to its extension to more territories than the First Industrial Revolution, limited to Great Britain, reaching almost all of Western Europe, the United States and Japan.

The period from 1860 to 1914 was the affirmation stage of the United States as an industrial nation; In this period, the structural transformations that had begun in the previous decades were deepened. The industry increased its participation in the national product, at the expense of agriculture, and the urbanization process accelerated.

The domestic market expanded considerably thanks to the growth of the population, and became a mass market as a result of the extension of the railway network and the spread of the use of telegraph.

At this stage there were notable changes in the structure of the industry, and the leadership shifted from the sectors producing consumer goods to producers of capital goods.

Along with the expansion and transformation of the industry, there were variations in its regional distribution, declining the relative weight of the Northeast in favor of the Great Lakes area, which was the main area producing iron and steel, and, later, the automotive industry.

By the volume of its production, in 1914, the United States was the most industrialized country in the world, and its per capita income was greater than that of any other nation.

How did Palestinian Arabs react to the plan proposed by the United Nations to divide Palestine into two separate states?
mario62 [17]
The "Palestinians" of the time were everybody who lived in the British mandate ... Jews, Arabs, Christians, and others, all of them 'Palestinians'. The surrounding Arab nations opposed the UN resolution to divide the mandate and I give the Jews administrative control over any of it. The Jews declared their piece to be a state. The Arabs didn't. And five Arab nations massed their military forces, and attacked Israel. Even though Israel was only days old, and had no army or air Force, the attackers failed to conquer Israel. That was almost 70 years ago. In that time, they have never absorbed the Arabs who left Israel, they have not built their own state, they still don't want Israel to exist, they have attacked it two more times, and now they teach their children to hate all Jews.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

By extracting minerals from that colonies in order to support their economy.

Explanation:

The Europeans need to create colonies in different regions of the world in order to fuel their economy by extracting minerals from that colonies. The "sun never sets on the British Empire" means that British Empire will never end or weaken. The colony ruled by direct rule means that the other country captured the land and rule over there while indirect rule means that the other country set out their men to run the government. I want to live in a French colony rather than British colony because French impose low taxes on the citizens of colony.
