1. The citation is: Indusrial Revolution Overview. Youtube. N.p., 18 Nov. 2011. Web. 1 Mar. 2017. . The video is about the Industrial Revolution time period. 2. This video was found in the chapter 20 video selection at the bottom of the study guide. 3. What is the geographic setting and historical time period?

Spies are majority looked down on today, but back then America benefitted immensely during the nineteenth century . B). I think it is extremely interesting how European countries established the first Industrialization through the use of textile machines to create yarn and eventually cloth. People originally processed all of the yarn and thread by hand, which took a lot of time. Inventions/machines took over like the spinning wheel or water frame and made this process more efficient. Though this might seems like a good thing for society it also took
