12 Germany Industrializes

13 Germany Industrializes
Germany was politically divided until late 1800’s Industrialization was slowed: political disunity economic isolation ● scattered resources

14 Pockets of industrialization (1830’s on)
some German citizens sent their kids to Great Britain to learn engineering Germany began to copy the British model Germany built railroads to link its growing cities Germany’s economic strength allowed it to become a military and colonial superpower in the late 1800’s-early 1900’s

15 Stop and Ponder! “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” Søren Aabye Kierkegaard

16 Expansion Throughout Europe
