Why did the Industrial Revolution first appear in England?

Great Britain at the time was very rich in the two
elements which are staples of the early onset of industrialization. These products were
iron and coal. Since England was colonizing, it was free to look for more of these
materials outside of Great Britain, wherever there were colonies by the 1700's. Having
the colonies was a huge advantage because the trade of iron and coal to and from Great
Britain opened the door for trades markets, and for other products to be included in
that trade. This way, more than one industry in Great Britain began to benefit from this
trade of elemental industrial material. As a result, Great Britain benefited incredibly
and expanded its industries with more ease than any other country in the beginning of
the Revolution.


The more Great Britain sold, the more
demand it created. Hence, as a result of the high demand of product merchants began to
develop ways to make productivity faster and bulkier. This, they did with the advent of
the machines, and with the creation of new technologies that could be used to produce so
many of the things Great Britain was able to provide.


This
is how the manufacturing industries and all the machines began to proliferate, and how
the Revolution began its marching steps.
