it was old-school war meets new technology
Answer:
Explanation:
Agriculture was the mainstay of the Chinese, Indian, and Ottoman Empire, in the 18th century. The governments hence focused tax burden on farmers.
The scholars were not the focal point. Also, the governments did not give support to the farmers in times of agrarian conflicts.
If the governments supported - both with money and favourable policies - the industrial revolution of the time would have been present in the 3 countries.
They were going to do this through the construction of a
canal. This was a joint effort by
government and businessmen and this was to be called the Erie Canal. This enabled merchants and traders to
transport their goods by water which was faster and facilitated trade.
