Answer:

During the first Industrial Revolution, Britain experienced massive changes including scientific discoveries, expanding gross national product, new technologies, and architectural innovation. At the same time, the population changed—it increased and became more urbanized, healthy, and educated. This nation was forever transformed for the better.
