Coal and iron ore. Along with many water ways to aid in distribution. Since it had few mountains it was very easy to build rail roads across Great Britain. This also increased the rate of distribution and trade of products. In addition, the availability of cheap labor and expanding markets overseas gave Great Britain an edge. Also, because of its many seaports.
