1 answer:

6 0

Over the course of six years, from 1 September 1939 to 2 September 1945, upwards of 80 million men and women were killed as total war erupted between the Axis and Allied Powers, obliterating much of Europe, Asia and the Pacific, and bankrupting many of the most powerful regimes on Earth.

Characterised by countless massacres, the Holocaust, civilian bombing, famine and nuclear weapons, the war helped shape international legislation that would dictate the future of global politics. It led to the formation of the United Nations but also plunged the US and USSR into a decades-long Cold War.

In Warsaw, yesterday, Poland’s President Andrzej Duda chastised other European leaders for failing to take the current threat of Russia seriously.

valkas [14]

Answer:

Industrial Production, Agricultural Production, Iron Smelting, Coal Extraction, The Railways, Steam Power

Explanation:

People like Abraham Darby found a successful way of extracting iron from rocks by using process involving coal. This massively increased the production of iron, which could then be used to produce steam engines, agricultural and industrial machinery, railways and bridges. (→ Industrial Production, Agricultural Production, the Railways & Steam Power) People like Humphrey Davy invented a new type of safely lamp which enabled coal miners to work longer hours in deeper pits without fear of explosions. This led to an increase in the production of coal, which was needed to power steam machines and for smelting iron. (→ Industrial Production, Iron Smelting & Steam Power) People like Isambard Kingdom Brunel improved the transport network immensely by building railways and bridges for the new steam trains. This meant that fuel and people could be moved into the new industrial factories and goods could be carried away. (→ Industrial Production & Steam Power)People like James Watt produced effective steam engines powered by coal that made industrial and agricultural machines run more quickly and which led to the development of steam trains. (→ Industrial Production, Agricultural Production & The Railways)
