The First Transportation Revolution In The United States
Transportation Revolution
The First Industrial Revolution that began in England with the textile industry around the 1780s was a major turning point in history. Some years later, it spread primarily throughout the western world, including America, having replaced the labor of men to the more organized and easier work in factories for less time and better pay. The Transportation Revolution was a beneficial part in creating the real America of today as it made the US a large and independent economy with more and more jobs, while the developments of antebellum America led to increased industrialization, expansion and sectionalism. The roots of this revolution were brought about with the Canal Age and all the other major industrial developments.
