Europe actually during the first industrial revolution coal and iron were really big in both England and Germany. they traded spices and other sorts of manufactured products from the ottoman empire, Venice (Italy didn't exist as today it was a series of kingdoms Venice being one of them) etc basically Middle East. later on England got themselves into a protective economy restricting manufactured imports in clothing and other thing like corn (read about the corn laws if youre intrested) which catapulted them into the most industrialized nation of the time.
