Industrialism

Industrialism is a period of history marked by the shift from handcrafted production to machine-based manufacturing, starting in the late 18th century. It involves the use of innovations like factories, steam engines, and new technology to produce goods more efficiently and on a larger scale. This change led to urbanization, economic growth, and the development of new industries. While it increased availability of products and improved living standards for many, it also brought challenges such as environmental pollution, difficult working conditions, and social inequalities. Overall, industrialism transformed how societies produce, work, and live.
