INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

THE CREATION

• Came after the blockades still set up even after the war of 1812
• Started years earlier as a simple textile industry
• Soon after the war it combined all the major works using textile industries
• It really takes form in the north, New England

THE NORTH

• Was the beginning of the industrial revolution in the country
• Had farming but mainly focused on industry
• Really was self relying, built to sustain the north by itself

THE SOUTH

• Relied on itself and farming
• Created the cotton gin
• The growth and development of slavery was parallel
• The more people created plantations the more slavery increased
• Relied on what was produced in the south more then the north

BENEFITS OF AMERICAN INDUSTRY

• Women and children could find somewhere to work
• Created multiple jobs
• Helped America become a self sustaining country during a difficult time
• Helped the idea of mass production in a assembly line fashion

THE WEALTHY AND POOR

• The wealthy side began to build industries and then build more
• This created more jobs for the poor
• Instead of only owning on factory, some wealthy opened up multiple factories

A SPLIT

• As the industrial revolution began a split began to form
• Two sides southerners and northerners
• The south focused on cash crop and agriculture, and slaves
• The north focused on building factories and no slaves

THE SPLIT

• The split was causing problems in the government
• Madison had a plan that would unify the two sides
• It was called the American system and was broken into three steps

THE AMERICAN SYSTEM

• To make them more unified so they relied on each other

• Easier ways to travel, such as roads, railroads and boat travel

FOCUS ON TRAVEL

• Since they were the center of trade and money
• They had all the main industry's and businesses
• Most southerners would travel using canals and railroads to trade goods

SUGGESTED TARIFFS
