History

serg [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Social: ancient civilizations were very hierarchical, organized in castes. Social mobility was very difficult, this means that if a person was born poor, it was very unlikely for this person to become wealthy later in life.

Political: most ancient civilizations were monarchies, or dictatorships. Republics were essentially non-existant. That is to say that they were ruled by a single powerful man like a pharaoh, or a few people, who had no almost no limits to their power, and who were not elected by the people. Power was instead, hereditary.

Economic: all of these civilizations had an economy that was based on agriculture, because agriculture was the activity that allowed civilization to emerge in first place. The most valauble resource was  land, and land was often monopolized by a few powerful individuals, the same people who had political power.

dexar [7]

Answer: Britain was best suited for the Industrial Revolution.

Explanation:

Several factors caused the Industrial Revolution to happen in the UK. In this context, we will list two major factors. Britain during the XVIII. century had the largest manufacturers in the world. Large quantities of fabric were used for manufacturing needs, so there was a need for the manufacturing method to be faster. The producers wanted more goods and faster production.

So there is an investment of money in technological research, which will be the second biggest factor that led to the revolution. A scientific revolution preceded the industrial revolution. The British invested a lot of money in new technologies, which led to revolutionary products that forever changed the development of the human race.
