The Second Industrial Revolution

Skibidi vibes hit as the Second Industrial Revolution kicks off, starting in Belgium and spreading like a dank meme in America, France, and Germany. Austria and Russia are lowkey agricultural and goon-like, while the others are sigma advanced. Major inventions roll in, like the food can that conserves snacks and sugar from beets. Chemistry goes wild with chlorine and bleach, plus new fertilizers. Transport gets a glow-up with steam locomotives and transatlantic ships. Critics edge on about artificial light clashing with divine vibes, while urban slums in London show a harsh life. The bourgeoisie chase capital, leaving the proletariat struggling. Workers rise up in 1848, sparking a revolution.
