why the revolution began in England

English merchants are leaders in the developing a commerce which has increased the demand of more goods. The expansion in trade is made possible to accumulate capital to use in the industry. A cheaper system of production has grown up which was largely free from regulation.

There are new ideas in England which aided the movement. One of these was the growing interest in scientific investigation and invention Another was the doctrine of tn he laissez-faire or letting business alone this doctrine had been growing in favor throughout the 18th century. It was especially popular after the British economist Adam Smith argued powerfully for it in his great work 'The Wealth of Nations' (1776)

For centuries the craft guilds and the government had controlled commerce and industry down to the smallest detail. Now many Englishmen had come to believe that it was better to let business be regulated by the free play of supply and demand rather than by laws. The English government for the most part kept its hands off and left business free to adopt the new inventions and the methods of production which were best suited to them. 

The most important of the machines that ushered in the Industrial Revolution were invented in the last third of the 18th century. Earlier in the century, however, three inventions had been made which opened the way for the later machines. One was the crude, slow-moving steam engine built by Thomas Newcomen (1705), which was used to pump water out of mines. The second was John Kay's flying shuttle (1733). It enabled one person to handle a wide loom more rapidly than two persons could operate it before. The third was a frame for spinning cotton thread with rollers, first set up by Lewis Paul and John Wyatt (1741). Their invention was not commercially practical, but it was the first step toward solving the problem of machine spinning.
