Economy / Society

 * The 920s are marked by a capital market-induced recession starting in Europe and reaching China already the next year.
 * Two decades of depression end with the invention of the steam engine in Italy. The new economic boom is fuelled by the easy multiplication of factory outputs in all developed nations and is at this moment in time only braked by limited transport capacities.
 * Towards the end of the century, new industrial towns have sprung up across the globe, housing a working class which begins to develop a critical class consciousness.
