AP European History
AKA "Torture" :)

SIT THE HECK DOWN AND BUCKLE UP NERD BECAUSE WE'RE GOING ON A WILD TRIP AND LEARNIN BOUT
1. Alright so our buddy England has ALWAYS been #1 kay like they have been the head honcho in industry always and they knew it so they built themselves an entire freaking place to house an exhibition where they showed off their swaggy-as-all-heck technology like that there Spinning Jenny and the Flying shuttle and ALL that good stuff!! There were some foreign countries there too, like France, but we all know the real OG there was Britain. SO back to the whole "England is #1" thing so England kept all the secrets of the Industrial REvolution real tight, okay? They were not about to let their secrets out all willy-nilly. Nah son. Part of the reason they are #1 is cuz they outlawed spilling them secrets. (but then here comes stupid fricking Samuel Slater the Traitor spillin the beans) but also they had HELLA natural resources and rivers and junk.
2.
Kso everyone looked at Britain and were like "omg senpai" like they all wanted to be that industrialized and advanced. So everyone was going cuckoo for coco puffs because England had steam engines.
3.
So canals and railroads in the IR were HELLLA IMPORTANT SON like they were what managed to get goods from here to there, there to here and everywhere else. They made and saved some cash money for factory owners because cheap transoprtation = increased profits. Now, what on earth would transportation be needed for if i weren't for trade agreements, dearest Perkykins?? Lemme tell you, a few things actually. But trade agreeements were improtant because they increased profits for growing capitalists.

That second Industrial Revolution was CRAZYYYY man like we got so much stuff that led to me sitting on here at 3 a.m on December 12 in front of this computer to finish this website. So the Bessemer process was a step forward in mass-producing steel from pig iron, right, and if there's one thing I know it's that mass production = 👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀 inexpensive stuff go౦ԁ sTuff👌 thats ✔ some good👌👌stuff right👌👌there👌👌👌 right✔there ✔✔if i do ƽaү so my self 💯 i say so 💯 thats what im talking about right there right there (chorus: ʳᶦᵍʰᵗ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ) mMMMMᎷМ💯 👌👌 👌НO0ОଠOOOOOОଠଠOoooᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒ👌 👌👌 👌 💯 👌 👀 👀 👀 👌👌Inexpensive stuff. So then they started up witht hat mass production with a crap ton of people producing a crap ton of stuff. Electricity helped because WHAT no GAS LAMPS ANYMORE??Q??!?!?!? AMAZING!!! It made things more efficient (obviously) and helped out stuff like the telegraph, telephone, airplane, and other things that led to the technologically advanced world we live in today that brings us such innovative miracles as this:
