I am a teaching assistant in China, and had to find a clear video for locals to understand. This is perfect! Fun, clear, and very organized visually. Thank you!!!
Thanks! Actually this was the first video I ever made for my students - so I published it here on my personal page. I created a new page for my school stuff. The other videos aren't as fancy (prezi is a pain) but I have videos on Global and US History if you're interested. Here's a link: czcams.com/channels/R2S0nkP4JtVIxuhcF-pLLA.html?view_as=subscriber
Ms D This darned thing won’t let me click the “read more” so I can’t read your entire message. I was surprised to learn that the revolution was so complex. I was always looking for a specific “spark.” Such as the harnessing of electricity, or maybe engines.
Very nice explanation, although you kept saying "England" when you meant "Britain". To anyone using this as revision for exams / homework: this is a mistake, don't make it! In fact, one other reason why the industrial revolution happened is that England and Scotland formally unified into the UK, so life in Britain was peaceful for the first time in centuries, which helped trade and industry. So making the distinction between England and Britain is actually very important, as well as just being more correct.
Thanks for the comment!! And I agree - you are correct. Totally my bad!! I created this years ago when I started out teaching - and I'm preparing my special ed students for the New York State Regents exam in the US, where understanding the difference between Britain and England isn't critical (no insult intended - it's just that teaching the history of the world in a few months means sacrifices must be made). I do teach my students about the difference between Great Britain, England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland in a follow up lesson on the Irish Potato Famine, because my students don't know the difference (they also refer to Africa as a country - so I have my work cut out for me). Of course, now that I have posted this online for the world to see, you are totally correct that students -- whether they be US AP students or students from other parts of the world - should understand that distinction.
@@monsterg4603 Yes imperialism was another factor, among many. My point here isn't that the industrial revolution happened simply because the island of Great Britain was relatively peaceful, its that the distinction between England, Britain and the United Kingdom is relevant in this context.
monkeymox yes sorry wrong arena. To think we polluted the planet, profited from it, raped women and then set the heads on fire while the husbands were tied to watch and still come out on top. Great nation. And we then we have the nerve to call them terrorists.
@@jamesandrew1750 All of that is true, but its still also true to say that the distinction is relevant. Additionally it wasn't long before industrialisation started in Scotland. Another factor which I didn't mention in my initial reply was the trading network which Britain established across its empire - this was of course the British empire, not the English one, so Scotland simply can't be separated out from that equation. Indeed, the reason the Scottish parliament voted to join the UK, before the industrial revolution had even started, was to have access to that trading network - and it was the prospect of peace, and of denying France a backdoor into England, which persuaded the English parliament to vote for the union. That's not to say the industrial revolution definitely wouldn't have happened in Britain if not for the union, but I think it would have been less likely.
FYI - If you liked this video - I started a new channel for the classroom stuff (since this account is a combination of my personal and teacher videos). The channel is "Ms D" - just look for the picture of the woman dressed up as dead Marie Antoinette (it's a picture of me in my Halloween costume from a few years ago).
The Industrial Revolution was a Power Revolution. The Scot James Watt's Invention of the Steam Engine. From 1800 to 1900 in England. 20,000 Waterwheels decreased in number. Windmills decreased in number. The Englishman Thomas Newcomen's 1500 Atmospheric Pumps disappeared. The Scotsman James Watt's 500 Steam Engines and their descendants increased in number to 10,000,000 !!! Total Power Output of the country multiplied by between 1400 and 1500 times. An increase of between 40,000% and 50,000%. That was the Industrial Revolution! All those other so-called " Industrial Revolutions " couldn't come anywhere near that. In a nutshell!
Thank you so much! You are an AMAZING teacher. Got my attention from minute 1 to the very end. Great explanation, catchy and even a technique to remember everything! Whoa. I wish one day I can be as good as you!
You missed out transportation of raw materials by the extensive canal system that was built before rail or road system, otherwise this is an excellent video
Yeah - I actually included a picture of a canal in this video - but I just forgot to mention it (when I recorded this I didn't use a script). I fixed it on the new version, which is also on this channel. You can view the new version here: czcams.com/video/NoLY03uZQxQ/video.html
:) If you are going to be taking the NYS Global Regents, and have to write an essay on the causes of the Industrial Revolution -- you might draw a blank on what to write. The unicorn stuff is to help you remember the mnemonic "I think pretty unicorns are really cool" --> Inventions, Transportation, Political Stability, Urbanization, Agricultural Revolution, Raw Materials, and Commercial Revolution.
Because in 1757 England got Bengal and its enormous finance that was invested in England. India also provided the market for the products of industrial revolution.
FYI - This video is on the causes of the Industrial Revolution, which starts in 1750. As you noted, the Industrial Revolution is a huge driver of imperialism - and in Britain's relationship to India - but it's confusing to think of it as a cause, especially in relation to the NY Regents Exam. I do mention Britain's colonies in the video as a source of raw materials, and I include a photo of slaves working on a sugar plantation to remind my students of our earlier lessons on European colonialism. (Yes - colonialism and imperialism are virtually identical in many ways - but the Regents uses the industrial revolution as a dividing line between that colonial period/mercantilism and imperialism/capitalism.) Also, please give me a bit of a break -- it's a 15+ minute video. I can't go into detail about everything... :)
@doradepolis East India company got Bengal before the industrial revolution happened and huge wealth was siphoned off in a short period of time. I can't say if Industrial revolution would have still happened if they hadn't got Bengal, but its suspect that industrial revolution starts almost immediately after that event.
The British followed the policy of mercantilism, especially at the start of the Industrial Revolution, where the mother country ensures a favorable balance of trade with its colonies - often by controlling manufacturing, so the colony's focus is on producing raw materials. And, with the shift to cash crops - we see a rise in famine. Later, they will adopt Capitalism - but "laissez faire" policies will be applied to domestic businesses - not the colonies. Bear in mind, the greatest threat to British textile manufacturers was Indian producers - so driving them out of business was a goal - not an accident / unfortunate side effect of imperialism. So yeah - simply put, it's another example of people doing evil things to make more money...
If you see the video description, you'll see I made this video years ago as homework for my 11th grade class. So yes, *they* should have covered it already... If you didn't - long story short - the Commercial Revolution was a period when new ways of doing business developed. During the Middle Ages, most of Europe's economy was based on manorialism. Feudalism broke society into 4 classes: The King at the top; Lords who owned land were next; then Knights who are the warriors; and finally serfs who were the peasants that worked as farmers. Serfs lived on a Lord's manor and grew food for their Lord. There was very little foreign trade. Things started to change after the Crusades, when there was a growing demand for goods from the East (that's why Columbus set sail on his voyage). Plus, after the Black Death - when lots of people died and the value of labor went up - feudalism started to break down. More people started to live in towns and cities. Trade Networks develop... Anyway - that's when the Commercial Revolution started. Bankers became more important / rich, insurance companies and joint stock companies were created, etc. It changed how people did business. Hope that explains it... :)
Colonies are not only in America .you can also add asian countries ...India is much more drained then anything. And britian should pay its repercussions . People talk about what Hitler did to Jews . But European couldn't even imagine how many millions people died in the colonies due to famines 🙏
First of all, colonies in Americas were way more productive for British empire, even after american independence. Secondly, Britain isn't gonna pay you anything 😂😂 Like bro seriously, do you think only Europeans were the ones attacking others????
😂I'm a special education teacher. I created this video as 1 night of homework for my students - not for public consumption (the video isn't even marked public). I'm shocked it's gotten so many views.
Ruth Myers I agree with An-, I think it’s important that we leave constructive criticism, rather than just ignoring something. Too many people nowadays are scared to say anything “negative” about something, for fear of being lashed out at. But how can we evoke change by saying nothing? But as the uploader said, it was intended for special education students, so even though I still think my original comment (albeit a bit harsh in hindsight, likely I was sleep deprived from uni)is accurate, I’m clearly not the target audience, which I wasn’t aware of at the time. All things considered, the content is great and has a lot of good info. It’s just that if being talked down to triggers you (even as a small child it got to me), you’re not going to enjoy the video. And I wanted people to know that.
This video is underrated.
This clarified so much for me for my test! Thank you!
Tomorrow is my history exam and it helps me alot thank you so much😊
Your explanations are pretty unique 🦄
I'm not in your class, but I really enjoyed listening. :) Thank you.

who else had to watch this for school?
I swear this video seems like 30 minutes
Cheers for uploading this!
Having a preformance at school tommorow about why the industrial revolution started in England, this is perfect.
They legit played this at school 😂
Oh ye ye
samee
i wasnt paying attention though, thats why i'm here now.

Another reason we were raping resources out of India. Did India not pay for the industrial revolution. With blood might I add

Why did the British destroy productive forces in India to get ahead in their Industrial Revolution?
The British followed the policy of mercantilism, especially at the start of the Industrial Revolution, where the mother country ensures a favorable balance of trade with its colonies - often by controlling manufacturing, so the colony's focus is on producing raw materials. And, with the shift to cash crops - we see a rise in famine. Later, they will adopt Capitalism - but "laissez faire" policies will be applied to domestic businesses - not the colonies.
