Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Belgium, France, and Germany were the major countries on the Continent where industrialization occurred by the 1820s. These countries had developed their own resources and technologies, and were able to facilitate rapid economic growth during this period. Prussia and Russia also underwent industrialization later in the 19th century, but not as early as their Western European neighbors. Spain, Italy, and Greece were slow to industrialize and remained largely agrarian societies for much of the 19th century. The areas of heavy British involvement and investment, while playing a role in the spread of industrialization, were primarily located in Britain's overseas colonies rather than on the European continent.
