How has time changed the way industry has developed?
In the 1800s people worked in primary industries, e.g. Farmers or in the domestic system. 100 years later, as a result of the industrial revolution, more started working in factories or secondary industries, and fewer in primary. In the 20th century in Britain more people were needed to work in the tertiary sector, e.g. Doctors or teachers, so fewer worked in primary and secondary sectors anymore. Quarternary industries also developed a lot more and continue to do so.

Why did primary industry go down in developed countries?
Because fewer farmers were needed, as the industrial revolution changed everything and demanded more people to work in factories rather in fields. It decreased because of industrial change.
Why did secondary industry go up and then down in developed countries?
Bessie people began to work in factories during the IR and therefore less in the fields or on the farm, increasing the levels of secondary industry workers. Once the 1950s and 1960s hit, tertiary industry began to rise, causing secondary to go done again. This occurred because more services were needed.
Why did tertiary industry go up in developed countries?
Because in traditional times, hardly anyone worked in service industries. However, after he IR, more service organizations, facilities and companies were opened and provided the biggest source of employment, since it was the most demanded for society. This was mainly because of modern technology and computerization.
What is an NIC?
