How did the Boston Massacre escalate from a small event to a larger one? The settlers were first friendly with the British soldiers and then started arguing with them.

The massacre began with a short jail sentence and led to a death penalty for several settlers.

A heated discussion between settlers and British soldiers led to gunshots and fatalities.

A child got angry with the British soldiers. Then, more and more people started getting angry with the soldiers until hundreds of settlers were yelling at them.

The colonists fired first, they began throwing rocks and understandably the British fired back but with guns. That's how it happened I may be wrong but that's how I remember it.

the process is called revolution because it was a process of great economic-social transformations that began in england in the xviii century.

the industrial mode of production spread throughout much of the northern hemisphere throughout the xix and early xx centuries.

the effect of this revolution was the distance between the countries, with respect to economic and political power.   after all, not all industrialized at the same time, remaining in the condition of suppliers of raw materials and agricultural products to the industrialized countries.

these differences mark to this day the nations of the world that are divided between developed and developing countries. one way to measure whether a country is advanced is to assess how industrialized it is.
