A monotheistic religion worships only one god, a polytheistic religion worships many gods. Examples:
Monotheistic: Islam, Judaism
Polytheism: Hinduism, Buddhism
Several factors led to the rise of U.S. industrialization in the late 1800’s. New technologies like steam engines, railroads, and telegraphs made communication and transportation easier. The ability to source and transport materials across the country with ease turned many local businesses into national companies. Workplace innovations, such as the assembly-line method of production, allowed these companies to produce goods on a mass scale.
It depends how far back you are talking about. If you are talking back to the 1700s it would be cotton. If you are talking about a time period even father back than that, sorry, I can't help. Hope this helped.
