Countries that were dominated by the agriculture switched to a new industrial society. Many factories across the globe were created and helped modernize many cities.

In the final sentence, Kyoko Mori has several cousins; it is essential that she tell the reader which cousin she is describing , so she does not punctuate the appositive.…
