Mary; What do you think the main factors were regarding England being the first country to industrialize?
John; I think it was the fact it was an island first and foremost and therefore they were not ravaged by wars then after that I would say raw material and good colleges.
Mary; Yes it wasn't one factor but a combination
John; Yes its never one thing but a series of things that come together
Mary; Could it be that the people there in Great Britain were just more intelligent?
John; Intelligence could be a factor but we would have to use data and statistics to find that out and it is too late now.
Mary; What about all the coal?
John; Well other countries had coal but didn't use it for inventions that drove machines
Mary; What was the greatest invention in that age
John; Well I would have to say the steam engine that also created the railways
Mary Why _
John Because it was devastating. You could suddenly go places fast and therefore everything changed 100 per cent.
