How did the Industrial Revolution affect culture?

Answer 1

It brought people together. Before the industrial revolution people were based in agriculture--farms that were spread out. The creation of machines, factories, cities, etc. brought people in from the countryside in search of a different lifestyle.

Time was suddenly important because work days weren't regulated by the sun. That's when clocks began to be used in the work place.

The entertainment industry began to develop because once people were off the clock, they wanted to have something to do.

Disease and sickness began to get worse because everyone was living so close together and there weren't any regulations.

Everyone in the family had to work. Family life was very difficult and was different because they were no longer working together. It wasn't like back on the farm. Now the women and men went to separate work places.
