How did industrialization change life in the United States?

History
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

One of the major changes was the construction of the transcontinental railroad that finished in 1869.  Railroads created an increased demand in manufacturing since the businesses could now produce and sell in larger amounts.

While major business were moving forward economically, farmers were experiencing negative changes in their lifestyles. Even though the farmers were still putting in the same amount of work, the prices of their crops were decreasing.

Industrialization also had a major impact on the lives of women and children. Women were subjected to work the same amount of hours as men, however they got paid half of the men wages.

And the last major group of people that suffered from industrialization were the Native Americans. As the railroad use became more common, many people moved westward and destroyed the Native American homes.
