Which of the following best characterizes the outcome of industrialisation on people in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries?

C) It often tore apart working-class families

Explanation:

During the industrial revolution, family life became strictly separated from work, unlike before, when people lived mostly on the farms and these two aspects overlapped. Industrialization caused men to be the main moneymakers of the family – they were wanted for hard, rough industrial labor, and women were less paid when they worked. That is why it was better, money-wise, for the family to have men work long hours and women stay at home and look over the house and children. This made women dependent, and created more separation between the family.

Low-class families were having a hard time getting by. They often lived in small, packed apartments, which would affect their relationships and impacted the family lived in a bad manner.

Often children worked as well, and they were working in hard conditions, unwell for their development. This also negatively inflicted family dynamics.

In some countries, men would immigrate to find a better job. This was especially common in Ireland, hit by the famine. Therefore, the family has been physically torn apart and could not enjoy the normal joint life in the same household.

the mongolian invasion of china and central asia resulted in a disruption of the silk road as the chinese garrisons lost support from the chinese kingdoms which fell under the mongols. however, as the mongols established a formal dynasty in china, the successors of genghis khan restored the garrisons along the silk road allowing the safe travel caravans again.

the industrial development of cities in the ruhr area in the nineteenth century is described. the research was based on english and german language sources. several factors that shaped growth and paths of the cities were categorized and analyzed. they are locations, resources, traditions, entrepreneurs, and technological developments. locations and resources were the most important among them; other factors may be regarded as consequences from locations and resources. among the cities, bochum, essen, gelsenkirchen, and dortmund had the richest resources and most favorable locations in the transportation network and grew to be the largest cities in the ruhr area near the end of the nineteenth century. riverside location was also a favorable factor for the development, as shown in the development of duisburg on the confluence of rhine and ruhr. resource distribution can explain the rise of textile industry, metallurgical industry, and coal and iron industries, and the northward progression of the mining industry. tradition was an important factor for cities such as krefeld, barmen, elberfeld, solingen, and remscheid, which experienced development based on their traditions through the nineteenth century. various entrepreneurs exerted influences within and beyond the local level over the ruhr area. technological development stimulated the northward progression of the mining industry and the deep connection between the coal and the iron industries.
