Following the religious revival that started in the late 18th century, missionaries began working in Africa and India in an attempt to bring Christianity and civilization to societies perceived as heathens. We learn of David Livingstone’s adventures in Africa as he attempted to link the three 'C’s - Christianity, commerce and civilization. From his discovery of the Victoria Falls to his famous meeting with Henry Stanley, we follow the career of this fascinating character. Presenter Niall Ferguson also travels to India and examines the changing attitudes towards Indian religions and culture during the 19th century. He also traces the Indian mutiny of 1857 and its brutal aftermath in which thousands were brutally killed.

The concept of ‘plantation’ is explored in this program, yet presenter Niall Ferguson is not referring to crops but the settlement of British people into the colonies. Without this mass white emigration there would have been no empire. Visiting Northern Ireland, the USA and Australia, we explore how the first colonies of the British empire developed. In contrast to the Spanish, the British viewed the colonies as a way to gain land to settle on and use, rather than just conquest and plunder. The east coast of the USA was first settled by puritans wanting religious freedom, including those who sailed on the famous ship ‘The Mayflower’ in 1620. The combination of cheap land and abundant natural resources made this an ideal location for sugar and tobacco plantations. Niall goes on to describe the American War of Independence a century and a half later. From Native American Indians to the Aborigines of Australia, the indigenous people of the ‘New World’ were treated appallingly, with little or no respect for land rights. One of the great ironies of the British empire is the difference between official policy in London and the actions of white settlers in the colonies.

BBC Teach Class Clips - Why did Britain need a better road network? - Worksheet to support the BBC video In the early 1700s Britain’s road networks were simply not up to the task of moving the goods around the country which needed to be moved. Most of the roads were ancient, potholed and too small for modern business to be carried out. As Britain began to industrialise, this lack of transport made it very difficult to transport raw materials like coal or cotton. It was especially difficult for a businessman like Josiah Wedgwood, who reckoned that he sometimes lost one third of his shipments of pottery on Britain’s terrible roads. In 1706 Parliament passed the Turnpike Act which allowed private road builders to build new roads and charge tolls for using them. It was a first, important step towards the road transport network we know in Britain today. This short film is from the BBC series, Why the Industrial Revolution Happened Here.
