French Revolution
5.1 Dawn of the Industrial Age
THINK-PAIR-SHARE:How did
revolutions in America and France lead to uprisings
in Latin America?
anesthetic Drug that prevents pain during surgery.
enclosure Process of taking over and combining land formerly owned by peasant farmers.
Vocabularies:
James Watt “Father of the Industrial Revolution.” Scottish engineer. Improved and made the steam engine more efficient.
smelt Process of separating iron from its ore, allowed for less expensive & better-quality iron.
The shift, beginning in England in the 18th century, from making goods by hand
to making them by machine.
I. Life Changes as Industry Spreads
• 1750s Rural way of life– Used handmade tools– Lived in cottages lit by firelight and candles– Made clothes, grew food, exchanged goods
at markets– Traveled on foot or by horses
• 1850s Rural way of life DISAPPEARS– Country villages grew to industrial towns
and cities– Bought clothes and food– Traveled by train or steamship– New inventions and scientific “firsts” poured
out each year

5.1 Dawn of the Industrial Age
Why was the industrial
revolution a turning point
in world history?
It changed: -how and where people lived -how they worked and
traveled.

JETHRO TULL’S SEED DRILL
Farming methods improved, this led to population explosion.
Population Explosion• England experiences huge increase in
population in the late 1760s.
• More people need more food. • Britain’s population: 5 million to 8 million
Europe’s population: 120 million to 180 million
• Large landowners combine their property into enclosures – land that is walled off.
•Technology and new inventions made the British farmers the most productive in the world.
Many farm workers and small farmers lost jobs because they could not compete with
large landowners. They migrated to towns and cities and
formed the labor force that would work on machines of the Industrial Revolution.

-England experiences huge increase in population in the late 1760s.-More people need more food.
5.1 Dawn of the Industrial Age
How did an agricultural revolution
contribute to the
population growth?
People ate better and were healthier, which reduced death rates.
III. New Technology Becomes Key

IV. Energy of the Industrial Revolution
British engineers learned that coal could be used for energy and carbon. It burned slowly
and had the carbon needed to make iron.
Iron was essential in the industrial revolution. Iron was used to make strong
machines.
Coal could
also be used to produce steam power.

POSITIVE
The British used iron to
build the world’s most
powerful navy.
This navy controlled the world’s
oceans using coal for energy.
V. Positives vs. Negatives
NEGATIVE, many workers die because
of dangerous machinery
