Document 1

The Industrial Revolution, a transformation that redefined the landscape of 18th-century Europe, was fundamentally driven by technological innovation. The advent of machinery such as the steam engine and the spinning jenny catalyzed a shift from agrarian economies to industrial powerhouses. This transition was not merely a matter of economic evolution but a revolution in the truest sense, altering not only production capacities but also social structures and urbanization patterns. The technological advancements underpinning this revolution were the primary agents of change, propelling societies into a new era of industrialization and setting the stage for the modern industrial economy.
