  1. Warm Up • What would be the positives and negatives for the expansion of Industrialization throughout the World? -Make a chart

Most of Europe Joins the Party Late • Many Countries in Europe had unstable governments -Example: Germany was split into many states and they couldn’t freely pass resources and goods across the country • The People who were rich from the land would not allow people make money another way -They did not want anyone challenging their power • Many parts of the continent lacked natural resources. • They would need to be imported

  3. Europe Finally Gets Involved • In 1830, many European countries introduced machinery into their production process • They start building transportation networks • European Governments finally decided to become active partners in the Industrialization process • The development of the railroad system throughout Europe helped begin industrialization -It helped stimulate other industries to meet its needs by the markets it created.

  4. Great Britain Tries to Prevent the United States from Getting involved • Great Britain wanted to keep their industrialization secrets’ -They prevented engineers, mechanics and toolmakers to leave the country • During the War of 1812 Great Britain tried to prevent the United States from engaging in international trade

The Men Who Brought Industry to the United States Samuel Slater Moses Brown Francis Cabot Lowell Emigrated to the United States and built a spinning machine from memory Opened the first factory in the United States Used Samuel Slater’s spinning Machine Built in Pawtucket, Rhode Island In 1813 he opened the first major textile industry in Boston

  6. US gets involved and Changes the Game • The Industrial Revolution began in the United States in the 1820s with the textile industry of the Northeast. -It then continued with the development of heavy industry in the Pittsburgh and Cleveland • U.S. industrialization followed patterns borrowed from England and Europe. - Most of the machinery was modeled on that of England. • There was a vast supply of raw materials. • The relatively short supply of labor helped avoid the awful conditions suffered by the English working class. • The major American contribution to the industrial process was the assembly line

  7. Assembly line Series of workers and machines in a factory by which a series of identical items is progressively assembled.

  8. Exit Slip: Think Pair Share • Why did it take time for other European countries to become industrialized? • Where do we see the beginnings of Industrialization in the United States? • What major contribution did the United States make to the factories?
