//**Vocabulary:**//
 * Dynamo-** Amachine used to generate electricity.


 * Assembly Line -** Production method that breaks down complex jobs to small taskes.


 * Stock-** Shares in company.


 * Corporation -** Business owners investors who buy or share stocks.


 * Cartel -**A group of companies that join to control the production and price of production.

//**New Industrial Powers Emerge-**// Nations race to industrialize - first nations such as **Germany,France** & **United States** had more abundant supplies of **Coal,Iron,**& **other resources** than Britain did.


 * **Also Uneven Development -** these nations often lacked natural resources & the capital to invest in industries.


 * **Effects Of Industrialazations-** As you will read by the 1900's,most conditions began to improve in many industrialized nations. Politics changed leaders had to meet all the demands of the industrial society.Because of their technological and economic advantages, the westerners power came to dominate the world more than ever before.

were generally the work of generally the work of gifted tinkerers.
 * -** **Technology Sparks** **Industrial Growth -** During the early industrial Revolution inventions such as the steam engine


 * **Steel Production and the Bessemer Process** - American inventor **​William Kelly** & British engineer **Henry Bessemer** independently developed a new process for making steel from iron. In the 1880's, for example the average German Steel Mill produced less than 5 million metric tons of steel a year. By 1910 that figure reached nearly 15 million metric tons.


 * **Innouations In Chemistry -** Chemist created hundreds of new products from medications such as Aspirin to perfumes and soaps. In 1866 the Swedish Chemist Alfred Noble invented dynamite an explosive much safer than others used at that time.


 * **Electric Power Replaces Steam -** In the late 1800's a new power source electricity replace a steam as the dominant source of industrial power. Later the English chemist Michael Faraday created the first simple electric motor and the first dynamo, a machine that generates electricity.


 * **New Methods Of Production -** the basic features of the factory system remained the same during the 1800's. Factories still used large numbers of workers and power- driven machines to mass- produce goods. By the early 1900's manufacturers had introduce another new method of production, the assembly line. Although dividing labor into separate tasks proved to be more efficient it took much of the joy out of the work itself.


 * **Transportation And Communication** **Advances** -Steamships replaced sailing ships, and railroad building took off. In Europe and North America, rail lines connected in land,cities, sea ports,mining regions, & industrial centers


 * **The Automobile Age Begins -** The transportation revelation took a new turn when a German engineer, Nikolaus Otto invented a gasoline- powered internal combustion engine. The French nosed out the Germans as early auto makers.


 * **Airplanes Take Flight -** Motorized thresners and reapers boosted farm production. Although their flying machine stayed aloft for only a few seconds inshered in the Air age rapid communication. A revolution in communications also made the world smaller. This trans- athletic cable was an amazing engineering accomplishment for it's day. In 1901 marconi recievea a radio message using mores code sent from Britain to Canada.


 * **Business Take A New Direction -** By the late 1800's what we all call " Big Business" came to dominate industry.
