In the late 1800s, rapid industrialization and urbanization led to a significant increase in city populations as people migrated for jobs in factories. This shift created harsh working conditions, long hours, and low wages, fueling discontent among workers. As a result, the labor movement gained momentum, with workers organizing into unions to demand better rights and conditions. Key events, such as strikes and protests, helped to raise awareness and support for labor issues, ultimately leading to significant social and political changes.
