In Britain this " middle class risk mentality " existed; in the rest of Europe it did not. Another vital point was that Britain was the only country in Europe to have a national bank, the Bank of England, and a national Stock Exchange, or bourse, which encouraged people to invest money in companies in order to earn a profit.” --The Rise of Industrialization in Britain

  7. Document E The development of the railway stimulated the economy in two important ways. First, cheap and efficient transportation lowered the carriage cost of goods. This meant that goods were cheaper in the shops and this increased the demand. The increase in demand led to the expansion of factories which required more energy. The need for coal grew because it provided power for the factory engines, steam powered ships and steam locomotives. Second, the demand for iron increased. Iron was needed to make the railway tracks, steam locomotives and the giant Watt steam engines that provided energy to run factory machinery. —Iron and Steel Manufacturing during the Industrial Revolution
