About this document
Factors Behind Britain by jessicaraealt is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Britain was well-suited for the Industrial Revolution due to its natural resources of coal and iron, as well as a growing population from the Agricultural Revolution. The population boom provided a large workforce while freeing people from farm labor. Britain also benefited from trade and colonies, which provided capital to invest in factories and mines. Geography insulated Britain from revolutionary ideas on the continent, allowing it to focus on industrialization.
