But a growing
population
meant that
human need for
resources—for
energy—was
growing, too.
And humans
dealt with
this need by
using fossil
fuels. Watch!

The Fossil Fuel Revolution
The biological old regime
ends when vast new sources
of energy come into use:
Coal
Electricity
Gas
Petroleum
Nuclear
14
By taking
energy from
fossil fuels like
coal instead of
biomass like
wood…
15
and with
better and
better steam
engines to
harness coal’s
energy…
17
People could
produce more
efficiently.

In Britain coal
mines were close to
factories and cities.
In China coal mines
were far from
factories and cities.
How might history
have been different
if the closest
sources of coal
available to Britain
were, say, in the
Carpathian
Mountains of
southeastern
Europe?

New economic ideas
• People should be
able to buy and
sell land freely.
• People should be
able to buy and
sell labor freely.
• People should be
able to buy and
sell goods freely.

After the Modern Revolution, much more
food went on the world market…
India, 1877
51
and it was often shipped to where
it got the highest price,
India, 1877
52
not to where it was needed most.
53
And industrial
technology
could be used
not only to
create, but to
destroy.

And more of the world was colonized
than ever before.

People who
traveled to learn
about one part of
the Modern
Revolution, like
fossil fuels,….
60
also learned about the
democratic part of the
Modern Revolution.
61
And they didn’t keep the ideas
to themselves. They
communicated them, because
it was all part of the package.
62
And powerful
elites who wanted
to modernize in
some ways did not
count on people
demanding the
democratic part of
the package.
