While the Industrial Revolution had both positive and negative effects on society and the economy, the positive effects outweighed the negative. Industrialization resulted in an increase in population, people moved in urban areas in search of jobs and work. This also increased the economy significantly.
People got longer working hours, including an increase in earnings, and due to more poeple moving into these urban areas, companies made more money. Cities grew rapidly and industrys and steam power rapidly strengthened.
In Manchester, the population in 1717 was 100,00, but by 1922, the population grew to over 2,300,00 people. This significantly helped the economy financially, because more people means more spending money.
Only that they both deposed an unpopular king. After that they differ....The British 'Glorious' was done without bloodshed or violence, and a new Queen (the deposed Kings daughter) was right away placed on throne as new leader, leading to peace and prosperity.
The French...was done with lots of violence, rioting and bloodshed including the execution of the deposed king, the queen and their children. The French never got around to placing a new king or leader on the murdered king's throne, so chaos was the result.
The war between Britain and France was virtually over. King Edward VII visited France in 1903 and won the hearts of the French people by speaking great French and acting graciously everywhere he went. He even gave a famous actress gallant compliments in her native tongue (this kind of thing goes a long way in France). The Anglo-French Entente was ratified in less than a year. The hatred of Edward by Kaiser Wilhelm was another cause (who was his uncle). In truth, the English had already proposed an equivalent entente to Germany in 1899 and 1901, but the Germans had rejected it because they thought it was a ruse. At a dinner with 300 guests in Berlin, the Kaiser made a public statement "He is the devil! You simply cannot comprehend what a Satan he is!" He was irate that he couldn't intimidate or win Edward over, envious of his fame, and worried about what he thought were English designs to "encircle" Germany. But it was for the Belgians, not the French, that Britain allied with France in World War I. Britain had committed to defend Belgium in return for its Continent-wide neutrality. The British intervened to defend them when Germany invaded Belgium without cause (Belgium had done nothing to deserve it) and started massacring civilians.
The correct answer is: "Rousseau"
The Enlighment movement emerged in Europe and was constituted by philosophers that promoted freedom and reason over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in absolute monarchs or tyrant rulers "appointed by God". The resulting states that emerged based on the principles of this movement, enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history, and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.
The principle of the social contract was developed by Rousseau. He promoted democratic freedoms and rights for citizens in opposition to tyrant monarchs that occupied most goverments at the time. But he did not support the predominance of reason. Instead he prefered to enhance decision making methods that included feelings and emotions, and not only scientific laws.
The hoover dam was the only successful public works project
