Why were other European countries slower to industrialize than Britain?

History
1 answer:
Korvikt [17]3 years ago
5 0
Most credit Britain's faster industrialization to it's easy access to large quantities of coal. Many of the steam engines developed in that time were invented to pump out water of mines to get more coal. Many historians also credit the entrepreneurial spirit that was at first unique to England due to a common idea that wealth was infinite and could be created; however, in France Wealth was seen as finite and had to be taken from someone else in order to attain it. Mix these two key factors with Britian's colonies which it used as forcibly secluded markets for English products and they industrialized very rapidly. At the same time they expanded different types of transportation and expanded both canals and the roads in the British Isles to move more products.

What was the cause and effect when hitler is chosen leader of the nazi party?
aev [14]
Part of the cause would be the great depression which might have helped bring him into power in the first place. Not only that but Hitler promised to restore Germany to its former glory. Remember after WWI Britain and the Allies put all the blame lf the war on Germany and forced it to pay reparations. When the Great Depression came after WWI it impacted many countries but was the hardest on Germany who was already in debt from the war. Hitlers one of the first things to do was stop paying reparations and use that money to invest back into Germany. His effect was making Germany more powerful like building up the military and getting it ready for WWII and invading Poland and breaking several agreements with USSR. He also affected 11 million people who were part of the Final Solution and his plan to racial cleanse the world killing Jews, gays, disabled ect. He brought unity to Germany but also beought great destruction to everyone else.
