Industrialization

The Industrialization period marked a significant transformation in society, characterized by rapid technological advancements and social changes. Shifts from agrarian lifestyles to urban living resulted in increased immigration and cultural emergence, but often led to poor living and working conditions. Factories proliferated in urban areas, while agriculture modernized, requiring fewer workers. The rise of labor unions emerged in response to poor conditions, prompting government regulations against monopolies. This era also sparked movements for reforms in child labor laws, worker rights, and environmental conservation.
