 <span>Britain had enjoyed quite a long period of political stability and Britain had been economically prospering. This led to land-owners having spare capital to invest in new ideas and innovations like new machinery. 
The price of agricultural produce had gone up on the Continent, so land-owners could reap great rewards by enclosing their land and buying a seed drill - making many of their farm labourers unemployed. (incidentally this also neutered the only real threat to Britain's stability - the Jacobite pretender - as the highlands were cleared of people to make way for sheep). 
This climate of economic growth, new ideas and innovations (not only in farming, but in science as well), spare capital to invest and an unemployed rural work-force coupled with the abundant and easy to obtain natural raw materials, like coal and iron ore fed the early industrial revolution. 
Another key factor was the British weather - rain to feed the rivers that turned the water-wheels of the early mills and factories. </span>

For this table, the reference currency is the _______
Mariana [72]

For this table, the reference currency is the Euro.

  • The reference currency means that the euro is the base unit, the table shows how much is one euro worth in the different currencies. This can be observed on the first row of the second column where it says (euro= 1)

The exchange rate of the euro to the US dollar and most other currencies is determined by supply and demand.

  • Most countries have a flexible exchange rate. This means that the government does not have a fixed exchange rate. With a fixed exchange rate the government compromises to give a given amount of money in exchange for one unit of a specific currency. Whenever, there is a flexible exchange rate, the price of another currency is determined by the incoming and outgoing capital.

According to the chart, one euro would buy 1.2149 Swiss francs.

  • This can be found in the fourth row and second column of the chart.
  • 1 euro = 1.2149 Swiss francs

It would cost 1.28 US dollars to buy one euro.

  • 1 euro = 1.28 US dollars
  • This can be found in the last row and second column of the chart.
