During the time known as the Inustrial Revolution when the creation of factories, textiles, and steam power were discovered, but at the same time, child labor and starvation occured. Leading to the creation of the child labor laws. Children younger than ten were working, but now the starting age for a paying job is sixteen. Immigrants came to this country to work and start a new life during this era. The Industrial Revolution also made a stronger country, because factories produced more jobs and created more money. Social interaction with other countries and make money while doing it. Though the Industrial Revolution had its downfalls, it changed the world for the better.
