The Luddites were a group of English workers in the early 19th century who protested against the industrial revolution's impact on their livelihoods. They aimed to protect their jobs and traditional crafts by opposing the introduction of machinery that replaced manual labor. Often resorting to direct action, they destroyed machines and factory equipment, believing that these innovations threatened their economic stability and way of life. Ultimately, their movement highlighted the tensions between technological advancement and worker rights during a period of significant economic change.
The Luddites began in Nottingham and grew from there!

The Luddites didn't really have any achievements. They were people who opposed technological growth during the Industrial Revolution and they did not have much success.
