Industrial Revolution & Steam Punk





The industrial revolution started in 1750 till 1850, beginning in UK the revolution started to spread throughout the Western Europe, North American and Japan and eventually the world.   During this period of time many changes occurred in different areas of the working industry; agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation and technology. All these industries had an effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of life. 


The start of the industrial revolution was also the starting point of the idea of what the future would hold. That is when steam punk started, the ideas of what was being created during the industrial revolution was further "evolved" to create the final ideas of steam punk. There were many ideas that the industrial revolution fuelled, like the airships, a flying machine most known to be a ship but made of  cogs and powered by steam as they were the materials used at the time.
