The Industrial Age and the revolutions it caused, for example the French Revolution, set up my Kahiau Project as we see it globally throughout our study of history. In the Industrial Age we can see that it evolved the economies that were based on agriculture and handicrafts into economies that were based on a larger scale industry. Many factories were built, along with new ways of organizing work. Factories paid low wages, working conditions were dangerous. With so many people looking for jobs, they came into the city and spread diseases. The cities became overcrowded. Disease became common, and children could no longer afford to go to school. Instead they needed to work with their parents, to put food on the table, and to survive. The Industrial revolution caused poverty, which led to the French Revolution. People had less foods to sell, and with less food to sell they wouldn’t need to pay taxes, and people got hungrier. As a result people began to revolt with the government for not being able to provide enough for the people. (n.d.).

Traditions and cultures were also taken from them, but they managed to salvage what they could.
