  2. APHG INDUSTRIALIZTION:HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY ‘Machines replace Hands’

  3. In the 18th century, markets for European goods were growing and better machines were needed for production. The water powered looms were the first improvement in providing power for the new “factories.”

  4. HEARTH of the Industrial Revolution: England *All Factors of Production present for first time!! (LLCT) Land, labor, capital, transportation

  5. London became the major industrial location due to its site and situation (location along the Thames River, center of transportation in U.K. and proximity to raw materials)

  6. The machine that propelled the Industrial Revolution. James Watts original steam engine.

  7. The steam engine filled the dream of inanimate power on a large and flexible scale.

  8. Animate power Inanimate power

  9. The steam engine forever changed the face of transportation.

  10. The shift from wood burning industries to coal burning allowed factories to create hotter and more efficient heat to power machines Higher levels of heat produced better grades of steel and more efficient power for steam engines.

  11. DIFFUSION of the Industrial Revolution Note dates of diffusion *UK first *Russia about the same time as USA….

  12. Diffusion of the Industrial Revolution was slowed across Europe by wars and political unrest on the continent

  15. The Industrial Revolution coincided with and advanced the other “revolutions”. The Medical and Second Agricultural Revolutions occurred at the same time. This convergence was a critical factor in the development of the modern world.

  16. Major manufacturing regions of the world: ‘The CORE’

  17. Europe’s Economic Core and Regions

  18. North America’s Manufacturing Regions

  19. Russia’s Manufacturing Regions

  20. East Asian Manufacturing Centers *NIC *Asia’s Tigers/Dragons *SEZ’s in China
