The industrial revolution began in England. Members of a Calvinist or Presbyterian church created a continuing board of directors based on Calvinist government. Of course replacement directors did not need to be Calvinists. While China had great inventions, they disappeared with the death of the owner. The continuous government in England could keep the machines running and the workers employed. Thus gradually new products were created and added to old.

In the US a single inventor created products and then created British style corporations with a continuous board. Unlike ancient China, the inventions did not die with the inventor. Thus General Electric keeps producing Thomas Edison's inventions.
