Quick context and facts
The Industrial Revolution is often dated from the mid-1700s in Britain, where access to coal, capital, and expanding markets supported rapid industrial growth. Textile mechanization, the steam engine, and railways didn’t just increase output—they reorganized where people lived, how families worked, and how governments responded to new social pressures.
