Industrial Revolution: 

  • The first Industrial revolution was started in Britain.
  • It has impacted the whole world and made a drastic change in the life of the people.
  • The Industrial Revolution began in England, then spread throughout Europe and then North America during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
  • The ultimate goal of the Industrial Revolution was to rely less on human labour in manufacturing processes.
  • And to alter the industrial steps that used to be powered by Man into another form that is powered by machines
  • This dream came true when the discovery of steam power and the invention and development of the steam engine took place.
  • The first steam engine to be applied industrially was the "fire-engine" or "Miner's Friend", designed by Thomas Savery in 1698. 
  • Because of the Industrial Revolution, a new system of society that had been emerging in Europe from the 15th century is
    called capitalism.
  • The Industrial Revolution has increased the use of the steam engine as its application has increased.

​Thus, the industrial revolution began with the invention of the steam engine.
