Question

How did industrialization create an imbalance in global wealth?(1 point)

Countries with desirable raw materials were powerful because industrialized countries relied on them, causing them to become wealthy.

The countries with industry needed labor, so they immigrated people from unindustrialized countries and the reduced populations caused their economies to fall.

Demand for raw materials and markets fueled imperialism and resulted in colonies becoming dependent on their colonizers, preventing them from industrializing.

Eventually, industrialized countries ran out of raw materials and had to rely on the unindustrialized countries for food.
