19th Century European Cities
The industrial revolution completely changed the urban landscape during the 19th century. New technology and production techniques drew rural laborers to cities in search of work, dramatically increasing populations and changing social demographics. Examining the aspects of urban culture, politics, quality of life and the role of technology can help explain the changes that took place in 19th century European cities.
