Passage:
The Industrial Revolution, spanning the late 18th to early 19th centuries, marked a significant shift in human history. It introduced mechanized production, replacing manual labor with machines powered by steam and later electricity. This transformation led to rapid urbanization as people moved to cities for factory jobs, boosting economic growth but also creating social challenges, such as poor working conditions and overcrowding.
Over time, innovations like the spinning jenny and steam engine became symbols of progress. However, the revolution’s benefits were unevenly distributed, with wealth concentrating among factory owners while workers faced long hours and low wages. Modern historians view it as a complex event with both positive and negative legacies.
