AP European History
Unit 6 – Industrialization and Its Effects
Topic 6.2
How might Belgium’s history differ if it hadn’t adopted British textile production methods during its early stage of industrialization?
Belgium's neutrality during World War I may not have been violated by Germany because it lacks strategic importance.
Its colonial pursuits in Africa would've likely diminished due to lack of surplus capital and resources for imperial ventures.
Its progress towards becoming an advanced economy may have been delayed or less certain considering alternative paths for growth are less efficient or proven at that point in time.
The Belgian Revolution against Dutch rule could’ve failed without the economic strength gained from industrialization.
