  1. I believe that, to people in the industrialized world, the Industrial Revolution had the largest effect on our history. The Industrial Revolution completely changed how the majority of people lived their lives, something you can see even more prominently today. During this time period, people stopped living mostly on farms and began to flock to cities, similar to the population split today, with most of the population living in an urban area and few people owning large farms. Also, the consumer lifestyles that we in the first world enjoy today could not be enjoyed without the benefits of mass production, which came about during the Industrial Revolution. Although it clearly had an enormous impact on our lives, this can not be said for all the people around the world. There are many countries which have not yet industrialized, for whom the Industrial Revolution probably had little impact.

  2. Yes, I agree that the Industrial Revolution had an impact on history and society. All the inventions that were all develop are some of the products we use today. Without the Industrial Revolution we probably wouldn't have had these incredible inventions that we use today.

  3. Yes, I agree that the industrial revolution was a game changer in the history of the world. It changed the ways we created consumer products like cars, clothing, etc. Assembly lines and factories upon factories of workers were introduced to make as much product as we could. It also introduced labor laws as people and children were being unfairly treated. So minimum wages and safe working conditions had been put into place and these laws still stand today.

  4. The Industrial revolution had a large impact on history and our society because of all the inventions and the advancements in the machines that were made. The Industrial Revolution introduced child labour in extreme to the world and also had women working as well instead of just being at home. Although children are not allowed to be used in labour situations, child labour in sweatshops or helping their families ion the farm still exist today. All of the other revolutions in the world have all affected only a small portion of countries or places, whereas the Industrial Revolution affected almost the entire world. Every country in the world was inventing and using machinery so when the Industrial revolution came along every country wanted to get the new machinery to keep up with everyone else. The Industrial Revolution created the idea that new is not bad and that you should always be finding a way to improve machines more.

  5. Yes, i agree that the Industrial Revolution had the largest impact on history and society because there were many new inventions during the Industrial Revolution. Many of these inventions impacted history and society because they changed the way people lived and worked and we still use some of those inventions now. They improved many machines and improved technology. Without these inventions we might not have the technology we do today.

  6. Yes, I agree. The Industrial Revolution changed how people lived from before to today. Without them, we wouldn't have our needs we use like cars, clothes, and other useful things like Machines. They wouldn't run right or we wouldn't even have them without the Industrial revolution.

  7. Yes I agree that the industrial revolution have a large impact on history and society.For various reasons that include that all of the inventions that were invented during this time period are used and have been farther improved upon since the industrial revolution such as the seed drill used by farmers and the spinning jenny.Also the industrial revolution had a great impact on society and history because it taught people the rights and wrongs during the industrial revolution such as the use of child labor and how that was wrong.
