Explain how different modes and locations of production have developed and changed over time

A variety of factors that

led to the rise of industrial

production and eventually

resulted in the Industrial

Revolution included:

Europe’s location on the  Atlantic Ocean

The geographical  distribution of coal, iron,  and timber

European demographic  changes

Urbanization

Improved agricultural productivity

Legal protection of private  property

An abundance of rivers and  canals

Access to foreign resources

The accumulation of capital

The development of machines, including steam engines and the internal combustion engine, made it possible to take advantage of vast new resources of energy stored in fossil fuels, specifically coal and oil. The fossil fuels revolution greatly increased the energy available to human societies. The development of the factory system concentrated labor in a single location and led to an increasing degree of specialization of labor. As the new methods of industrial production became more common in parts of northwestern Europe, they spread to other parts of Europe and the United States, Russia, and Japan. The “second industrial revolution” led to new methods in the production of steel, chemicals, electricity, and precision machinery during the second half of the 19th century
