Follow the evolution of work and labor, as well as the collapse of the slave trade and the effects of immigration, division of labor, mining and manufacturing, and the union movement.
As work and labor became more efficient the world became more industrialized. Work started off as pushing rocks around to try and make something, but now as humans have evolved work is much more efficient such as the quick and easy transportation of stacks of materials around from place to place. Technological advancements have improved work and labor heavily.
Mining and manufacturing for materials such as stone, iron, metal, etc. was very crucial in the age of industrialization. The mining of materials became easier as tools became more advanced due to technological advancements which made materials much easier to get a hold of. Manufacturing of these materials was necessary in order to ensure that not just anyone was able to get a hold of the materials without paying for them.
Th slave trade was an atrocious development. Slaves were used to do dirty work, they did the tasks of their masters such as manual labor in order to get their tasks done quicker. Slaves were used as an investment into making industrialization easier.
Immigration had a big part to do in the industrial revolution. Immigrants from other countries meant more employment which was better for the manager because so many people wanted to work the wages of the workers went down. More workers meant building would get done faster.
