How did the industrial revolution affect the lives of the working class?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: industrial revolution not only affected working class, it created working class. It was the main consequence, because before there was only labour working on the fields. The second consequence was that industrial revolution caused process or urbanization (people moving from country to towns and cities) and the third one was that the social conflict became more visible.

Explanation: European society was mainly rural society before the industrial revolution. Majority of people lived in the countryside and in certain harmony with the nature. Industrial revolution cut off people from the nature and natural life-style. Sometimes it is referred as "alienation". Result of that were masses of "alienated" people suppressing their natural drives and life-style of their ancestors. These people frequently lived in inhuman conditions in towns, were explored and this was something that contradicted to the ideals of Enlightenment and the French revolution. Working class became aware of this social problem in 1848 but at the same time there was a nationalism ...another strong tendency among masses of people. So people became increasingly aware both their social status (and conflict, and alienation) and their nationality.

Describe the issue that led to the Sepoy Rebellion, and explain the underlying conditions that caused resentment between Indians
andriy [413]

Answer:

One of the most popular reasons given for the Sepoy Rebellion was the issue of the rifles they were given when enrolled in the British Army.

Rumours arose that the cartridge Sepoys had to bite off to use the rifle were either made from beef or pork fat, both of which were offensive to Hindus and Muslims respectively.

Explanation:

However, the underlying conditions for the uprising had been years in the marking. Known as the first war of Independence in India today, it originated with a deep resentment among many local people.

Many locals did not appreciate the changes being made by the British government. Their laws, taxation, language and even fashion was seen alien and against the traditions and norms of the subcontinent.

Poverty and illiteracy had also become a major problem in rural India and most blamed British policies.

As american settlers spread west in the 1800's how were american indians affected
nirvana33 [79]
American settlers continue to spread to the west and took land from Native Americans. As expansion continued, agreements were signed and they were broken with native americans losing their homes and land and force to move west. As Native Americans were forced to more to the west, they are not able to adopt to the environment they are moving to, so they died due to lack of food or diseases.
