What else can I help you with?
Steam power was used to power the what in 1800s?
Machines in factories.
Where were most factories built in the northeast throughout the 1800s?
The Northeast of the US had a large, concentrated, population and access to resources including raw materials and power. The many fast-flowing rivers of the northeast provided energy to run mills based on water power.
Where were factories built in the noetheast throughout the 1800s?
In the Northeast during the 1800s, factories were primarily built in urban areas along rivers and waterways, which provided the necessary water power for machinery. Key cities such as Lowell, Massachusetts, and Pawtucket, Rhode Island, emerged as industrial centers, leveraging their access to transportation networks and labor. The region's infrastructure, including railroads and canals, further facilitated the growth of factories, particularly in textiles and other manufacturing sectors. This industrial expansion marked a significant shift from agrarian economies to urban industrialization.
Which does not describe a way that growing American cities used rivers in the mid-1800s?
To power mill tacked Electricity.
Who held power in the early 1800s in Britain?
King scott ii
How did the physical geography of the northeast help influence the spread of industry there?
Northeast had many swiftly flowing rivers to provide water power for the new factories, and the south had land and climate that favored agriculture.

What powered the first factories in the Northeast?

Why does Canada have factories on rivers?
the power from the flowing water provides power to the factory
What is the most valuable resources of the northeast region of the US?
iron ore and one direction ;)
How did the geography spur industrialization in the northeast?
Swift rivers provided power for machines.
What mostly allowed manufacturers to build their factories away from rivers?
Steam energy allowed factories to move away from rivers.
How did the Northeast and rivers contribute to the region and economic development?
they helped convert water power to machine power
Which was not a reason for the growth of American cities along the rivers in the mid-1800s?
Hydroelectric Power!
When France industrialized why did its factories rely more on water power then steam power?
Because there a lot of rivers in France.
