Do you think that if the overlooker were naturally a humane person it would still be found necessary for him to beat the children, in order to keep up their attention and vigilance at the termination of those extraordinary days of labour?
--Yes; the machine turns off a regular quantity of cardings, and of course, they must keep as regularly to their work the whole of the day; they must keep with the machine, and therefore however humane the slubber may be, as he must keep up with the machine or be found fault with, he spurs the children to keep up also by various means but that which he commonly resorts to is to strap them when they become drowsy.
As a child I worked from five in the morning till nine at night...it was so dusty, the dust got up my lungs, and the work was so hard. I got so bad in health, that when I pulled the baskets down, I pulled my bones out of their places...
Despite the IR allowing for the common man to have money for goods, the IR was a curse for the working man because of the terrible conditions men, women and children had to endure.
The balance of power in Europe after nationalism began had the German empire as the strongest on the continent with William I as Kaiser. Emperor Napoleon III was in power as well and King Victor Emanuel of Piedmont controlling the Italian states. The great powers changed as well as country lines once the Concert of Europe fell allowing for nationalism to occur.
Did you find that the children were unable to pursue their labour properly to that extent?
--Yes; they have been brought to that condition, that I have gone and fetched up the doctor to them, to see what was the matter with them, and to know whether they were able to rise or not able to rise; they were not at all able to rise; we have had great difficulty in getting them up.
Karl Marx was an early socialist who believed in equality for all, basic communist principles. He did not believe that the upper class had the right to exploit the lower class for political or social gain. I agree with him on this issue.
Causes: Crimean war destroys concert of Europe, in Germany there is an attempt to unify all people, Belgium rebels from the Dutch republic, national workshop is a failure, a new constitution is ratified in 1848 creating Second Republic and Charles Louis Napoleon Bonaparte is elected President.
Wars: Crimean war, Piedmont-Austria war, Red Shirts-Sicily/Naples war, Austro-Prussian war, Franco-Prussian war, Prussian-Dane war
Social, demographic and political changes occurred
Marxists believed the elite people of society did not have the right to exploit the lower classes, and this belief lead to the form of government of communism.
The IR lead to much social, environmental and technological progress. The price was much human suffering to achieve this. I believe this is justified because the progress made future lives better.
Providence has presented Italy with Victor Emmanuel. Every Italian should rally round him. By the side of Victor Emmanuel every quarrel should be forgotten, all rancor depart. Once more I repeat my battle-cry: "To arms, all-all of you!"
Thither I accompanied the emperor, with an escort from the king's cuirassier regiment, which had been called up in the meantime; and there we concluded, with the French general Wimpffen, the capitulation, according to which forty to sixty thousand French,- I cannot be more accurate at this time,-with all that they had, became our prisoners. Day before yesterday and yesterday cost France one hundred thousand men and an emperor. This morning the latter started with all the members of his court, his horses and carriages, for Wilhelmshöhe, near Cassel. This has been an event of vast historic importance,- a victory for which we must thank the Lord in humbleness of heart. It decides the conflict, although we must still carry on the war against an emperorless France...

Became a world leader when:
