Before World War I, many countries began to industrialize. The first country to become industrialize was England from 1760 and then in the others countries from 1820 to 1840. Between 1850 and 1914 France, Germany and Belgium began industrialize. The last ones was Italy, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Spain and Russia.

During that time, country life was displaced to the industrialize cities. It was a huge change between hand production to manufacturing processes. It was a rise of unemployment becase machines reduce the cost of workforce and quickly displaced the human being.

Economy of the country went from being agricultural to becoming industrial. People tend to be individualistic and competitive. Also, due to the huge production of good it was an increase of pollution in the European countries.
