INDUSTRIAL+REVOLUTION

=INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION Author: Kayla H.=

====The Industrial Revolution was all about new inventions and the way it changed the world. The Industrial Revolution began in the 1700's and ended in the 1800's. It changed the U.S. in many ways, mostly with the use of technology. This Revolution started with the invention of the cotton mill. One invention was a machine called the cotton gin invented by Eli Whitney. This invention was a huge part in the Industrial Revolution and soon became a part of slavery, but it was not meaning to. The cotton gin was a good machine to use instead of using hands, the machine did it all. This machine got seeds out of cotton. Another invention was a steam-powered engine used to paddle steamboats. The inventor was named Robert Fulton. All of these inventions made life easier and quicker.====
