First Stage Of The Industrial Revolution

First stage of the Industrial Revolution

Between 1760 and 1870 it was the period marked by the continuous inventions, thus given the development of the first stage of the industrial revolution.

During this period the great inventors appeared as:

• Volta who invented the electric battery n 1800
• Stephenson invented the first locomotive in 1760, which by 1825 was already inaugurated with the first passengers
• Richard Roberts Ideo the spinning machine and loom.
• Morse invented the telegraph which gave the impulse to communications

In London in 1863 the first Metro system in the world began, 3 years later the first transcontinental railway was launched

•  Railway
•  Spinning machine

At the same time society began to have more modern and liberal ideas.

At that time the French Revolution was fundamental for these ideas to spread throughout Europe despite the fact that it seemed that everything was already lost to the French and Spanish appeared Britain that was the great promoter of the revolution that took the Mediterranean Sea to open roads and channels to do a global trade and have opportunities in England for their freeambistas ideas that advocated so much to get further further .

In all that, technology such as electric light, gas and public transport that are the most basic until today, leaving aside horse cars through vapor and lighting machines made by oil changed By electric lighting that great change was given because in addition to that they also had sanitary advances such as vaccines and a better food for the population was given, which caused the population throughout Europe to multiply in a short time in another words they had a better hope of life.

All this caused the agricultural revolution to decrease the labor in the field that caused the appearance of a new working class in the factories.

Even with all this, the working class spent a very hard time since very extensive schedules worked with a very low salary and as if that were not enough the environment where they worked it was lousy so much so that the people who worked were a victim of epidemics that spread easily And that is where for the first time the movement of workers in protest appears that began what we know today as unions.
