LO: Environmental factors that contributed to industrialization from 1750 to 1900 is that Britain is an island nation located on the Atlantic, so they have easy access to water. They also had control over American colonies and India and had coal deposits that help to provide energy for new inventions like steam engines. There was also an increase in iron production that was used in steel production to build new things like larger bridges, stronger ships, and taller buildings. Britain also has a lot of rivers, which allows for cheaper transportation for easier distribution.
Factory System 5.3
A factory system is a system where interchangeable parts were created using an assembly line, therefore creating more of a product and being able to produce and distribute more.
