Round 5
• Draw a fairly large BROKEN line around an area on your paper
• WRITE in this area “For Agricultural Use Only”
• Relocate any houses in the area. NOTHING IS TO BE DRAWN IN THIS AREA
![Page 8: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Improvements in FarmingJethro Tull • invented the seed drill (in
1701), the horse-drawn hoe, and an improved plough.
• His seed drill would sow seed in uniform rows and cover up the seed in the rows.
• Up to that point, sowing seeds was done by hand by scattering seeds on the ground. Tull considered this method wasteful since many seeds did not take root..
Seed Drill

Factory System• System of manufacturing
adopted in England at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
• Each worker did a separate part of the total assembly of a product.
• Workers, paid by wage, and machines were brought together in a central factory.
• Raw material would arrive at the top of the mill and emerge as reels of spun cotton or silk at the base.
![Page 14: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Round 9

buildings• People from other
villages now move to your village

Round 10
• More workers mean more people have to live, eat and shop for goods. – Add 4 stores
• Since workers have only Sunday off, many seek religious relief.– Add 1 church
![Page 16: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

![Page 17: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Round 12

![Page 18: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
1770’s & the Steam Engine
• James Watt & the Steam Engine– More efficient– Factories can move off
rivers & near canals
• 1785 Edmond Cartwright invents the steam power-loom– All cloth production
done in the factories now
– No more cottage manufacture
– Factories 1000x faster than hand
![Page 19: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Round 13• Draw 3 canals• Add 3 coal mines
and connect them to the canals.– The coal mines are at
the edge of the paper; if a house or apartment building are in the way, relocate it
• Draw 10 factories with smoke
![Page 20: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Round 14

![Page 21: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Puddling Process
Circa 1800
• Henry Cort invents a method for converting raw iron “pig iron” into wrought iron– Heat & stir iron, rake off
slag impurities until pig iron becomes pasty & purer
– Beat and roll to expel more slag
• More coal needed to fuel the iron industry
• Village propelled into the “Age of Heavy Industry”
• More & better machines can now be madeSlag byproducts:
sulfur & carbon monoxide
![Page 22: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Round 15• Add 3 Railroad lines
connecting your factories and coal mines – [the railroad should
be near at least 15 factories]
• Add any IRON bridges you need
![Page 23: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Round 16 [1785-1810]
• Social & Urban Changes– Wages are higher in town than in the countryside. More
people move to the city to find work & support their family since they no longer get the additional income from cottage industry.
– Workers find employment in coal mines, factories and in construction of homes, apartment buildings & railroad lines.
• ADD:– 5 stores 10 apartment
buildings– 5 houses 2 cemeteries– 5 pubs 1 church– 3 schools
![Page 24: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Round 17• About 50,000 people now reside in your ‘town’
or perhaps city is a better word. Soon there is a surplus of workers. Capitalists, wanting to maximize their profits, hire children and women before men because they perform the same work at 1/2 to 1/4 the wage of men. The children find themselves doing factory work and worst; working in coal mines where small size is an advantage. – ERASE 1 SCHOOL
![Page 25: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Round 18
• As a result of this chronic male unemployment, the crime rate begins to soar. Family life is completely disrupted. Alcoholism reaches epidemic proportions.– Add 4 pubs– Add 2 jails
![Page 26: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Round 19• The Working condition in the factories
[whether textile or iron] are appalling. Many workers contract the deadly factory fever or “white lung disease.” Others injure or mutilate their bodies in factory accidents. Machines contain no safety devices. Children, weakened from lack of sleep and proper diet succumb more quickly. Capitalists are relatively indifferent as there is such a large labor force available for employment that will replace those who cannot work. – Add 2 CEMETERIES– Add 2 HOSPITALS
![Page 27: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Round 20• Meanwhile, the need for better Rail Road
transportation continues. Coal, iron and other raw materials need to be moved to the factories. The finished products from the factory need to be moved to the sea ports and overseas to foreign markets. – Add 2 RAILROAD LINES connected to the river.
• More workers are to build the Rail Road, work in the coal mines and toil in the factories; and come they do to your ‘town/city.’– Add 5 apartment buildings 1 CHURCH– 5 STORES 3 JAILS
![Page 28: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
A major fire broke out.
Take out your lighter and burn yourcity
![Page 29: The Urbanization Game Industrialization in England, or any other small town that has experienced industrialization in the world](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051417/56649ec45503460f94bcefe6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
1830• There are no pollution controls, so the air in
your city is black. At noon, the sun doesn’t cast a shadow, smog turns day into night. The water is completely unfit for drinking and bathing. Many citizens, even those who do not work in the factories, develop lung cancer and other fatal diseases which are associated with intense stress. People are lucky if they reach 40 years of age. Your city is overcrowded and shrouded in factory smoke. The loss of privacy and clean air troubled many. Suicide rates begin to double. The stress of urban work and live becomes unbearable for many.
