Description

Formalizing the Papal support in the Treaty of Tordesillas, the world west of the Azores was reserved for Spain and the eastern half for Portugal. Eventually they agreed to push the demarcation line to the west of the Cape Verde islands to ensure Portuguese possession of Brazil. Portugal and Spain may now attack and conquer any non-European provinces without having to declare war on their owner.

Description

The Industrial Revolution began in Britain during the late 18th century and extended into Germany and the United States during the 19th century. It was a transformative period in human history, marking the definitive shift from agrarian and craft-based economies to industrial and mechanized production. Key innovations, such as the steam engine and textile machinery, revolutionized manufacturing processes and led to the rise of factories and mass production. This era witnessed rapid urbanization as people moved from rural areas to industrial cities in search of work. Whilst the Industrial Revolution brought about economic growth and technological advancements, it also brought challenges, including poor working conditions, social inequalities, and environmental impacts. It reshaped society, ushering in a new era of industrialization and setting the stage for modern industrial societies.
