The Industrial Revolution first began in Britain in the 18th century but soon spread throughout Europe and North America.  Historians have identified several causes for the Industrial Revolution, including: the emergence of capitalism, European imperialism and the effects of the Agricultural Revolution.

Capitalism was a central component necessary for the rise of industrialization.  Historians refer to the form of capitalism common during the Industrial Revolution as laissez-faire capitalism.  Often, laissez-faire capitalism is also referred to as free market capitalism or market capitalism.  Simply put, laissez-faire translates to “leave us alone” meaning that the government should remain out of the economy and instead allow individuals to freely carry out their own economic affairs.
