I think that factories had the biggest impact on american society. I think it had the biggest impact because theres a lot of factorys that make just about everything now. They make all the clothes and everything we need exept food and water. Factorys had the biggest impact on america
Seth Horwat the man The major invention was the machine inventions. It was impor tant because to have factories you have to have machines and to have canals to transpot goods you have to have something to make the goods. Thats why the invention of the new machines was the biggest part of the industrialy revolution. Thats what im sayin. It changed society majorly and impacted are lives to day.
I think that the invention of machines in factories was a major innovation. With the invention of machines, people would be able to do less things by hand and more things by machine. But, there were downsides as well. When using the machines, people could get there hair or clothing caught(because of inattention and carelessness, and become injured, or possibly...DIE!!!!!!! Even so, the machines were usually operating properly, and this usually happened by accident.

Many of the machines canals and other inventions made a big impact on the U.S. today. To begin if there were no machines it would be had to make things. Also we use machines in our everyday life. Another thing that machines do is give us interchangable parts. The canals however do not help us now in everyday life. Back when they did use canals it was helpful to transport goods. Now however we have other things such as cars, trains, and planes. These thing help us now to get things to places. As you can see the machines and canals are important in some ways but not in others!

I think that machines had the biggest impact on American society. I think this because people no longer had to do everything by hand. Factories also got a lot of work done in one day. Factories also are offer many jobs to people that need or want a job.

I think that the machine inventions for the factories had the biggest impact on society. The machines had the biggest impact for a few reasons. The first reason is that the machines increased manufacturing products. We were able to produce products faster than ever before. Also, the machines impacted society in a negative way. The machines in the factories created pollution in the air and made the air unclean. In conclusion, the machines in the factories impacted society in a positive and a negative way.
I think the cotton gin and the textile mills had the biggest impact. It allowed farmers to work in the winter. They could also let the whole family work. The wives and daughters could work there because it involved making cloth out of cotton. I also allowed the farmers to not depend on the crops growing correctly.
Back in the late 1800's you wouldnt think that the people wouldnt be able to buld all of the machines and factorys because of the less technology. How did they manage that. Its good that they had built the machines and factorys because it helped people out.What if there was never them machines or factories what would The United States machinary and products be like today.If they didnt have that back then the U.S people would have probably had to go back to britian and trade from them with there factories and goods and products. Its a good thing that these people back in the 1800's came up with these inventions

In my opinion, the innovation of factory machines had the biggest impact on the American society. The factories allowed jobs for men, kids and women, it all depended on what type of factory. Families had to make the dicision whether they wanted to move to the city or stay and live on the farm. The new machines allowed things to be made faster. Many families had trouble deciding whether to go or stay.

The Steamboat was the most major innovation in American History. It's the most major one because people could now go up stream on a steam boat to deliver goods. Ecspecially on the Mississippi River. In conlusion, the steamboat was the most major innovation in American History.

I think that New Yory City had the biggest impact from the erie canal. Because the population increased and new york gained more money. Therefore New York got more powerful and became more like it is today. The canal gave New York a transport and trade system to other areas easily. So I think the Erie canal imacted New York the greatest.

i think that factories hade the biggist impact on american history. The reason is becouse the factories help us make things quiker like cotten. It also helps the farmers with money and food becouse they don't have to worrie about losing there crops. The factories also could produse weapons faster so if another country attacks us we could propair quiker.
I think that the machines for factories had the biggest impact on the american society. It started a major industry that has led to even bigger factories and more technologicaly advanced machines. It has allowed things to be produced more quickly and efficiently, also it has shaped modern life.

The telegraph was one of the many important innovations during the Industrial Revolution. This is because it could transmit electric signals over wires. The telegraph could send these signals from location to location that translated into a message.
* Facts *
The first non-electric telegraph was invented in 1794.
The first crude telegraph was invented in 1809.

Hello America!
i think the facories had the biggest impact on american society. i think this because now many facories had opened upsince the first time facories opened and americans are now able to create even more products with these facories. also factories help to create and make products faster and more efficently. now that facories have opened citiznes around the U.S. have been able to make and sell items to other countries for other items in return. these items are used to help our country become stronger and better for the citizens that live here.

The factories changed American society. Factories made making things easier than making it with our hands. Mass-production was capable of occuring with machines. That means they could make things quicker. Factories had a major impact in American society.

In my opinion the waterways was and had the greatest inpact on American Society. This helped us transport all materials across this great this great nation. This is what started the indstrail revolution and our early economy. For example Pittsburgh was a great exportor of steel. The only way we became known world wide is because we could transport all of the steel all around. We became one of the most steel producing people in the world. Of course all of that change when we started to really on other sources places instead of our own country. The waterways still play in inportant role in the way we live today and how we get around. We need to know that we couldn't have had the economic succes and the great Nation that lived back in the earl Years of our nation. The waterways are and have been inportant from the begining of our nation to this point of time. This is why the waterways are and were the most important innovation in this nation has ever seen. Also everyone is Awsome! John Ryan Rudzki.
To begin with, machines canals and factories all had a major impact on American society. One of the inventions that had the biggest impact was the the invention of the canal. Canals allowed us to have a easier way of navigation. Also they allowed for more importing and exporting to and from different places inside the country to occur. The invemtion canals had a major impact on America.

I believe that factory systems had the biggest impact on america at that time. I believe this because it changed the economy. this is important because it changed the way people worked and brought families more money because they also employed children. my next reason is that it stopped people from working on farms. this was big because most people worked on farms and had to move to big cities which caused factories that eventually became the factories and manufacuring systems today! Lastly this was important because when people got out of the farms there became less risks and more money which helped a lot of families during that time that had lost their crops and harvests from that year. Even though it was difficult and hard, dangerous and really long, the families benifitted a lot!

I believe factories had the biggest impact on the U.S.A. for many reasons. First, I believe this because they make and assemble many if not most or all of the items we use every day. If we didn't have factories would we have all the products we have today? I think not. Second, factories employed and still employ alot of americans. Without factories thousands of loyal U.S. citizens would be out of a job. Third, they top the charts in pollution factors of the world. Every day hundreds of chemical waste products are dumped into our water suplies, poisoning the fish and wildlife... and us. Puffs of billowing black smoke destroy the ozone layer and cause global warming. Hey, you did'nt say it all had to be good. Those are the reasons I believe factories have such an impact on the U.S.A.... and the world.
To begin with,I think factories played a huge impact on our country. People began to work in the factories because raising crops was risky. The people needed money for their families so they sent their daughters off to go work in the factories. Also new technology was discovered to help make life easier. Factories had the biggest impact on our country.

I believe that factories that began to develop in the Industrial Revolution had the biggest impact on out society. Factories are how everything that is mass produced are made, and most things today are mass produced. Factories completely changed the way we make things and have had a huge impact on how think about products. In the Industrial Revolution, people went from hand-making everyting to learning how to work machines and be much more efficient. Everything was becoming much more efficient. Factioies had a major impact on our everyday society.

I believe that the factories were the biggest impact on American society because it gave people more jobs and little bit more money.And people could work in factories in case they rely on their farm for thier money. Also factories made useful items for other people to buy.

The thing that had the biggest impact on the American society would have to be machines. The machines got us started in making a whole bunch of electronics that help us contact anybody we need. If it weren't for machines we would not be able to make cars the way we do today. Also we need people to run the machines so if it weren't for the machines most people would not have jobs. Also another important thing in American society is factories. Without factories we would have no were to put the machines and products. So as u can see i feel that machines and factories are the most important things in America's society.

I think the thing that had the biggest impact on american society was the factories. Factories made alot of important things for us to use. In fact, factories make telephones and alot of other electronics we use today. Factories give people jobs so they can work. Also they make cars so we can have transportation. That is why i think factories were the biggest impact on american society.

Machines and factories , I think had had the biggest impact on American society in the 1800 and still have an effect on us today.Factories imploied many sitisons. They made making goods easyear. Now every day we use something that was mad my machines. That is why i think machines and factories were the biggest impact on American society.
I think factories have the biggest inpact on the american society. It has the biggest inpact because facories offered alot of job oppertunities. Also facories are are uesd for many important things. We can make many house hold objects in factories much quicker then making them at home. In conclusion, there are many things that impact the american society, but i think factories have the BIGGEST impact on the american society.

i think the biggest impact was the canal. Without canals im pretty sure we wouldnt have half the stuff we do today. the reason for that is because we need them to transport food/goods. Without the canals it would take a very long time for things to get over sea. Plus things the the erie canal was a Huge hit and we need it majorly.I think the canal was the biggest impact in the United States.
