What was one reason the Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain?

History

 <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>

Discuss both the positive and negative implications of the American Indian Citizenship Act of 1924
antiseptic1488 [7]

The positive effects were that they were allowed to easily assimilate and become a part of the American society according to American traditions. They were given all rights that all other citizens of the United States had which meant that they could vote or purchase property or anything similar.

The negative effects are that in assimilating them they would often abandon their own culture in order to adapt so they were not included as so much as assimilated. The idea was not to make the two cultures co-exist, but rather have the Native Americans become like the everyday US citizens.
