  2. HI Crystal, first of all I would just like to ask why are most of your statements redacted? I’m not too sure if that’s a technological error. Nevertheless, from what I can read, you are articulate in formulating your answers, and you know how to be as descriptive to give readers the idea of what you want to say. I agree with your statement “Europe's Scientific Revolution additionally had an extraordinary part for the status of the insurgency since it had cultivated mechanical development thus numerous new things were presented right now.” I do believe that this is a recurring idea— the global importance and benefit of the industrial revolution. It truly sparked new beginnings and shaped our world into what it was today.
