During the 18th century, enclosures were regulated by Parliament which required each village to enclose its land. In other words, this acts allowed adding small landholdings into larger farms. All this led the small farmers to lose their land and move to the urban areas. The moving of the rural population in the urban areas led to the rise of urbanization in cities and town. Majority of people left their villages to find a better opportunity to earn money and to start a new life.
The industrial revolution also led to widespread poverty and filth among factory workers and children. Industries owners saw to their profit, not for the benefits of the worker. Factories workers forced to work for long shifts to earn wages in poor working condition.
As paid workers were earning wages, the demand for manufactured goods increased. The increase in demand was due to workers having capabilities to buy goods.
