The Industrial Revolution impacted Western civilization in many ways. For one, it helped centralize and streamline production and processing across the nation. This was due to advanced technology and machinery, which made it easier to secure productivity and performance in the workplace. The Industrial Revolution also led to advancements in textile manufacturing, as well as farming and even travel.

After the American revolution, there was a period of peace and prosperity in the colonies. Immigrants began settling into states like Vermont, Kentucky, and Tennesee. However, once America's debt became a problem, there needed to be change in the laws.
