Unit 6 Overview: Consequences of Industrialization
If you remember nothing else:
Industrialized countries in Europe, plus the US and Japan, controlled more territory overseas than ever before. This was good for investors in imperialist countries and bad for workers in the areas that they conquered.
Contextualizing the Unit
- Britain, France, the British and Dutch East India Companies, Portugal, and Spain all began this period with colonial possessions in the Americas, Africa, and Asia.
- Industrial developments, such as mass-produced goods, steamships, railroads, and more effective firearms, allowed states with them to expand their power
- British abolition of the slave trade in 1807 contributed to the resurgence in indentured servitude.
- Charles Darwin’s publication of the Origin of Species in 1859 contributed to justifications for imperialism later in the 1800s.
