access to resources

Many nations struggled with early industrialization due to limited access to resources, which stunted their ability to produce goods efficiently. Without abundant raw materials like coal, iron, and cotton, economies couldn’t support the factories and innovations needed for industrial growth. Countries that relied heavily on agriculture faced additional challenges as they attempted to transition to an industrial economy.

Additionally, anti-capitalist movements emerged as a reaction to the growing inequalities created by industrialization. These movements often hindered progress by resisting changes that could have spurred economic growth, making it difficult for governments to implement policies conducive to industrial development. The tension between traditional practices and modern industrial approaches created roadblocks to success for some nations.
