Society, lifestyle

     


         As we have seen, there where many changes between 1700 and 1847, also in society and
         the everyday life of people.
         In pre-industrial societies people work long hours in the field and live of what they were
         getting. Later, in industrial societies, lots of people moved from the countryside to the cities, in
         order to work in factories. It was natural to work  10-14 hours, 6 days a week without vacations.

Industrial societies 

             Although people worked really hard and could´t even rest there were many improvements for
             society in industrial societies.
             Because of the technological changes, there is better healthcare and more people are born and
             fewer die. The population increased a lot. Children had tu work, otherwise families were not
             able to cover their expenses but when children grew up they could decide what do they
            wanted to do and the rich ones usually choose to study. In terms of money, you could be rich
            in many ways like having your own company because obviously it´s better to own a company
           than to work in it.
