It's when people started to work in factories in Britain. There are three phases. The first phase started between 1770's to 1860's in Britain before spreading to the USA and North and Western Europe.
The second phase was in between the 1870's to the 1950's, it has spread to NZ, Australia, Eastern and Southern Europe, Russia and Japan.
The third phase is from 1960's to present day. It has spread to Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and South Korea. Also it was in Turkey, India, Brazil, Chile, and Argentina.
