Industrial Revolution thread

I have a paper, long paper, to write about this bitch of a subject. Namely, im trying to find at least 3 to 5 causes or precursors to what happened in this time period.

Im struggling, but I have a good idea. So far I have increases in technology, organizational changes, increased demand for a new market basket of goods (i.e. wedgewood china, tea, other bullshit). Thats just my take on it. Anyone else have any other solid precursors?

*edited* main point will show rapid growth through northian and solow models, and how incr. in technology caused this.

Not much. The teacher is a weirdo, hes too busy explaining what models come into play, not so much in terms of what actually happened.
