Changed

The
nineteenth
century
was
a
time
of
extraordinary
change
,
marked
by
a
wide
range
of
political
,
technological
,
and
social
advancements
that
had
a
significant
impact
on
everyday
people
’
s
lives
.
A
major
turning
point
in
the
life
of
common
people
was
the
Industrial
Revolution
,
which
started
in
the
late
eighteenth
century
and
gained
substantial
speed
during
the
nineteenth
.
It
brought
about
a
transition
in
economic
systems
from
rural
and
cottage
industry-based
to
industrial
and
factory-based
.
1
The
invention
of
newer
“
devices
”
brought
about
a
huge
change
to
all
kinds
if
people
,
slaves
included
.
2
This
change
had
a
number
of
significant
outcomes
.
Opportunities
for
Employment
is
one
example
.
People
from
rural
areas
were
drawn
to
metropolitan
areas
by
the
abundance
of
job
opportunities
brought
about
by
industrialization
,
where
they
found
work
in
factories
.
Urban
centers
grew
as
a
result
,
and
the
distribution
of
people
changed
generally
.
Working
conditions
can
serve
as
a
second
illustration
.
Men
,
women
,
and
children
who
worked
in
factories
frequently
endured
cruel
and
exploitative
working
conditions
.
Dangerous
conditions
,
long
hours
,
and
poor
pay
were
typical
,
which
resulted
in
the
growth
of
labor
unions
and
the
fight
for
labor
rights
.
As
a
result
of
this
,
abolitionists
arose
in
both
men
and
women
.

were
also
changed
by
industrialization
.
The
start
of
the
women
‘
s
rights
movement
was
also
something
that
came
as
a
result
of
the
revolution
.
4
In
the
pre-industrial
era
,
women
had
mostly
been
employed
in
household
roles
,
but
many
later
started
working
in
factories
to
help
support
their
families
.
This
change
reshaped
family
relationships
and
prepared
the
way
for
later
women
’
s
rights
movements
.
Another
form
of
change
for
the
people
of
the
nineteenth
century
is
Urbanization
Cities
grew
quickly
in
the
nineteenth
century
,
mostly
due
to
the
industrial
revolution
and
the
attraction
of
work
opportunities
.
Ordinary
people
’
s
lives
were
significantly
impacted
by
urbanization
in
a
number
of
ways
;
examples
are
included
below
:
Living
arrangements
and
housing
:
Rapidly
expanding
cities
saw
a
decline
in
housing
standards
as
more
people
moved
to
metropolitan
areas
.
Slum
housing
,
poor
sanitation
,
and
overcrowding
became
commonplace
,
which
aided
in
the
spread
of
illness
.
5
Social
and
Cultural
Transformations:
As
people
from
different
areas
and
backgrounds
congregated
in
cities
,
urbanization
promoted
a
greater
diversity

social
and

expression
.
The
emergence
of
new
forms
of
social
interaction
,
art
,
and
entertainment
as
a
result
of
this
diversity
marked
the
birth
of
contemporary
urban
culture
.
6
The
Rise
of
the
Middle
Class
and
Social
Mobility:
Industrialization
and
urbanization
increased
social
mobility
.
As
people
in
a
variety
of
crafts
and
professions
discovered
new
avenues
for
financial
success
,
the
middle
class
grew, especially for middle class white-women
.
7
A
change
in
societal
values
that
placed
more
emphasis
on
education
,
individual
success
,
and
social
advancement
coincided
with
the
rise
of
the
middle
class
.
Working-class
people
and
social
challenges:
While
the
middle
class
prospered
,
urban
living
presented
difficulties
for
the
working
class
.
Low
pay
and
abusive
working
conditions
frequently
sparked
labor
movements
and
demands
for
workers
’
rights
.
As
working-class
neighborhoods
looked
to
improve
their
living
and
working
situations
,
urbanization
also
saw
the
emergence
of
political
and
social
reform
movements
.
Moving
onto
the
third
way
that
peoples
lives
changed
in
the
nineteenth
century
,
is
transportation
.
Advancements in transportation had a profound impact on the everyday lives of people
during the nineteenth century
.
Railroads and the Expansion of Trade is a great example of the
point
being
made
.
The
development
of
railroads
significantly
transformed
transportation
.
These
networks
connected
distant
regions
and
allowed
goods
and
people
to
move
quickly

efficiently
.
The
expansion
of
railroads
facilitated
the
growth
of
trade
and
commerce
,
making
a
wider
range
of
products
available
to
everyday
people
.
It
also
reduced
transportation
costs
,
making
goods
more
affordable
.
8
Communication
and
Cultural
Exchange
is
another
example
of
the
way
transportation
changed
people
’
s
lives
.
The
expansion
of
transportation
networks
,
including
railroads
and
steamships
,
revolutionized
communication
.
9
People
could
now
send
messages
and
receive
news
from
distant
places
more
quickly
than
ever
before
.
This
improved
communication
led
to
greater
cultural
exchange
,
as
literature
,
art
,
and
ideas
from
different
regions
could
be
shared
and
enjoyed
by
a
wider
audience
.
To
sum
up
everything
that
has
been
stated
so
far
.
The
nineteenth
century
brought
about
profound
changes
in
the
lives
of
everyday
people
,
driven
by
industrialization
,
urbanization
,
and
advancements
in
transportation
.
These
transformations
fundamentally
altered
the
way
people
worked
,
lived
,
and
interacted
with
the
world
around
them
.
While
industrialization
reshaped
economies
and
labor
patterns
,
urbanization
restructured
societal
hierarchies
and
living
conditions
.
Improved
transportation
networks
brought
the
world
closer
together
,
