The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain and spread to the United States and other parts of the world. Many of us today tend to think of the United States as a powerhouse of technology, and it's true that America has been one of the most innovative civilizations in history. However, in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution, the United States lagged behind developments in Great Britain. We Americans owe Great Britain a debt of gratitude for setting the foundation for the industrialization that allowed us to become a global superpower.
