3-2-1

The three things I learned in this Chapter are: That Thomas Malthus and David Ricardo through supporting Adam Smith's ideas formed Capitalism.  Great Britain led the Industrial Revolution setting an example and power focus for the world.  Many of the qualities of life changed because of the rapid growth in cities.

Two things I found Interesting in this chapter were: That the steam engine was a major factor in Industralization.  That a middle class was formed out of this era, redefining the social structure.

One question I still have: Is this rapid growth in Great Britain what led to their imperial power?
