The Greek Heritage
One of the people who contributed to spread Greek ideas was Alexander the Great. He conquered a vast empire within 10 years, and the Greek culture linked the Mediterranean.

The first machine of the Industrial Revolution was in Great Britain for textiles. It was used in factories. Each machine did something over and over again so the product was made more quicker.

Cities Are Congested
People left their farms and came to the cities to work at factories. The factories didn't have a good environment, and they didn't pay them well. That made people live in cramped, dirty housing. The unclean conditions caused deceases to spread. -
