Belgium lead Europe in adopting industrialization because it had rich deposits of iron and good water transport.

Before Industrial Revolution started, Belgium enjoyed a vibrant trading tradition for many years. Its textile production flourished in Flanders, its iron processing flourished in Walloon, and there was a large coal reserves in the south and east part of the country. With those available resources, the Industrial Revolution in Europe started in Belgium.

Industrialization is a process of developing machines for the production of goods. It requires naturals resources such as water, iron ore, rivers for transportation, and harbors.

Which countries formed the triple entente
Olin [163]
Refers to the understanding linking the Russian Empire, the French Third Republic, and United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland after the signing of the Anglo-Russian Entente on 31 August 1907. The understanding between the three powers, supplemented by agreements with Japan and Portugal, was a powerful counterweight to the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy.
However, Italy did not side with Germany and Austria during World War I and joined the Entente instead in the Treaty of London (1915).
Historians continue to debate the importance of the alliance system as one of the causes of World War I. At the start of World War I in 1914, all three Triple Entente members entered it as Allied Powers against the Central Powers: Germany and Austria-Hungary.[1]
However, the Triple Entente, unlike the Triple Alliance or the Franco-Russian Alliance, was not an alliance of mutual defense. Thus, Britain felt free to make its own foreign policy decisions in the 1914 July Crisis

American solar power incorporated sells solar cells for people to install on their houses. What would the introduction of a Chin
SIZIF [17.4K]

This could have a variety of impacts that this situation could have on the local market. Firstly, the introduction of a Chinese company would mean that there would more competition for the American solar power company which would then have to contend with the Chinese company for sales. They would then be in a race to bring the most affordable options to the consumers as well as new advances in the technology or greater service. This would mean that the consumers would benefit greatly from this situation as they would be getting better products and service for an affordable cost.

Also, both companies could have a working arrangement where they act as an oligopoly and dominate the solar power industry in that particular market. Although, more companies brings more competition, when there aren't a multiplicity of  competitors, there is always the danger that the few businesses will band together and operate as one entity where they set specific prices, standards of service and technological advances introduced. They would only superficially be competing with each other. In this arrangement, the consumers would endure the same standard as having one entity dominating the market.

Another scenario would be where the American solar power company makes a superior product and as such would promote their products to the market as 'higher end' which would ensure they have a core and stable consumer base.
