The Industrial Revolutions Details
When the founding fathers wrote the U.S. Constitution in the 1780s, life on planet earth had changed very slowly over the previous 10,000 years. It wasn't all that different from life in 1500. Life in 1500 wasn't all that different from life in 1250. Life in 1250 wasn't all that different from life in 1000. And so on and so on.But then the human experience changed completely. Consider this. In 1700, over 60% of the French workforce farmed. Today it's under 3%. Back then, only about 2% of the world's population spoke English. Now it's over 20%. Women were considered property. Slavery was considered normal. Hardly any humans received a formal education. Even fewer were allowed to choose their government. Guns didn't shoot straight. There was no dictionary. Traveling from the Atlantic to the Pacific took months instead of hours. No one knew how to prevent diseases because, medically speaking, nobody really knew what diseases were.Everything about our lives has changed because of the Industrial Revolutions. In this podcast, we explore the transformations of the past 250 years on our technologies, our economies, our governments, our families, and our day-to-day existence.
