Enclosure Movement
The Enclosure Movement took land that had formerly been owned in common by all members of a village and put it in private hands. This forced MANY farmers off the land and into the cities where they would become the labor force for factories.

You now have the needed:
Factors of Production• Land - from Enclosure Movement
• Labor - from farmers leaving farms and from new machines
• Capital - from profits from colonial expansion.
One additional item that helps is a stable government, no one wants to build a factory in a war zone!
Who has the most stable government?
