Throughout the 1600s, the population of London increased rapidly as people from
across Great Britain and the world moved to the city and called it home. How could the
chy support all these people? A complex infrastructure was needed to accommodate
the growing urban population. Throughout the 17th century, London officials built
systems to serve people's water, sewage, and electricity needs. In 1609, the city
connected 30,000 homes to a new reservoir in hopes of bringing them safer drinking
water. Almost 50 years later, in 1662, city officials started a mail delivery system. And
four years later, regularly lit streetlamps allowed people to stroll London's main streets
at night. London's rising population also brought an increase in traffic. Starting in 1625,
people had to get licenses to drive carriages on city streets. Buses also crowded
London's streets, Traffic jams were common. For example, in 1661, one Londoner
named Samuel Pepys said he was stuck in his carriage in a traffic jam for an hour and a
half.

first industrial revolution - the first wave of the industrial revolution lasted from the late 1700s to the mid-1800s. it industrialized the manufacture of textiles and began the move of production from homes to factories. steam power and the cotton gin played an important role in this period.

the united states constitution defines the structure of the national government and dictates the scope and limitation of its powers. the constitution is known as “the supreme law of the land” and all other laws are measured against it. the application of the articles and amendments of the constitution comprise constitutional law.

in addition to the united states constitution, each state has its own constitution and therefore, its own body of constitutional law as well. state constitutions resemble the federal constitution in that they outline the state government’s structure of legislative, executive and judicial branches as well as contain a bill of rights.

but there are various ways state constitutions differ from the federal constitution. often, state constitutions are much longer and more detailed than the federal constitution. state constitutions focus more on limiting rather than granting power since its general authority has already been established. as a result, the constitution of alabama is six hundred pages long whereas the federal constitution can be easily read in one sitting front to back.

the details in state constitutions are not particularly “constitutional” in nature. they often address topics unique to the state. the federal constitution can only be amended through a lengthy process designed to limit changes to this fundamental document. as a result, it has only been amended seventeen times since the adoption of the bill of rights in 1791.

state constitutions are more open to amendments. amendments can be proposed by legislature, a constitutional commission or citizens’ petition and can be accepted by referendum.   for example. the constitution of massachusetts has been amended one hundred and twenty times. the constitution of georgia has even been replaced altogether as many as ten times.
