Respuesta :

Everyone except the 1% worked, even children for mere pennies in today’s wages. They worked in coal factories, iron mills, and even in mines. Their living and working conditions were beyond words, no shoes for children in mines where their are live explosives. They were forced to accept them to help their families

Answer:

  • Everyone including children
  • they worked in the coal mines, worked with machines in factories
  • they lived and worked at the factories
  • Workers worked for 12 to 16 hours a day and stayed in unhygienic places
  • They accepted the jobs because new industries were springing up
  • The factory owners knew that there were alot of people who needed jobs

Explanation:

The industrial revolution was a period between 1760 to 1840 that saw the rapid emergence of mechanized system of production of goods and services and in very large commercial quantity across Europe and the United states of America. during this period alot of mechanized industries/factories came up including coal mines which was used for the production of energy for trains.

As the industries became mechanized the need for Labor increased very high and the citizens/people living in America were willing to work as well. this caused a huge migration from the villages to the cities in order to get jobs in the factories.
