The '''Industrial Revolution''' was a period in [[Earth]] history, or several, in which new mechanised manufacturing processes begin to achieve prominence.
The '''Industrial Revolution''' began in the late [[18th century]] and saw a move from small-scale manufacturing often done in people's homes to large-scale factories, complete with specially built machinery that enabled mass production. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A History of Humankind (novel)|A History of Humankind]]'')
 
The invention of [[steam]]-powered machinery also led to the development of the [[railway]]s. [[George Stephenson]], "the father of the railway", notably built his first locomotive in [[1814]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A History of Humankind (novel)|A History of Humankind]]'')
