It was situated primarily in the United States as well as the continental Europe. It was defined more by steal chemicals, electricity and petroleum or fuel oil. In addition to the introduction of new sources of power and machinery, the Industrial Revolution resulted in new ways of thinking about work.The process of making things began to be viewed in terms of a system: machines and people functioning together in workplaces, typically in factories as parts of a factory  system. Previously, goods had been manufactured by individual craftspeople working at home.
