Answer:
Industrial Production, Agricultural Production, Iron Smelting, Coal Extraction, The Railways, Steam Power
Explanation:
People like Abraham Darby found a successful way of extracting iron from rocks by using process involving coal. This massively increased the production of iron, which could then be used to produce steam engines, agricultural and industrial machinery, railways and bridges. (→ Industrial Production, Agricultural Production, the Railways & Steam Power) People like Humphrey Davy invented a new type of safely lamp which enabled coal miners to work longer hours in deeper pits without fear of explosions. This led to an increase in the production of coal, which was needed to power steam machines and for smelting iron. (→ Industrial Production, Iron Smelting & Steam Power) People like Isambard Kingdom Brunel improved the transport network immensely by building railways and bridges for the new steam trains. This meant that fuel and people could be moved into the new industrial factories and goods could be carried away. (→ Industrial Production & Steam Power)People like James Watt produced effective steam engines powered by coal that made industrial and agricultural machines run more quickly and which led to the development of steam trains. (→ Industrial Production, Agricultural Production & The Railways)
I was in a Canadian History Class at the time. Our prof was concerned but he was calm while everyone else was in a great flurry. He did,however, say that Kennedy had ICBMs Khrushchev did not. He turned out to be very accurate in his assessment. Russia could not launch missiles without retaliation, so Khrushchev blinked. He was a pretty tough guy who had survived Leningrad so it was a pretty big blink.
