Hello World!

During the modern era, changes and innovation started happening more rapidly. Also, since this era only started five hundred years ago, there is much more information about this era than the previous ones. One of the significant changes that happened in Europe and the United States was the Industrial Revolution, which began industrialization in these regions. Industrialization was the process where manufacturing of products started to shift from hand production to machine production. This change caused a strong growth in the average income, quality of life, and population in the regions that experienced it.

Since the Age of Exploration that started during the Renaissance but continued through the modern era, there began to be much more interactions between different people on different continents, and this is called globalization.  Due to globalization, all the regions of the world during the modern era started to experience a significant change in daily life. Due to the colonization of the New World and Africa and some regions of Asia, the significant changes that happened to the lives of the indigenous was the change of their culture and traditions because now they had to learn the colonizer’s language and follow the colonizer’s religion. In Europe, the significant changes that occurred were the growth in the quality of life in a cause of globalization and new inventions.

To this day, many visible changes were caused by these game changers and turning points during the modern era, since it began only five hundred years ago. Due to the industrialization at the beginning of the modern era and unrestricted capitalism, during the 20th century, there was a lot of communistic and socialistic governments which have caused the countries that they controlled to be in general poorer than the ones which stayed capitalistic. Also in a cause the industrialization the population growth increased exponentially because before them only 25% of children made it to their fifth birthday. The growth in life expectancy caused the population to hit one billion at the start of the eighteenth century and continue to increase, and the visible change that is caused by this is that the population of the world is over 7 billion now.
