Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution did encourage a middle class of people who were not abundantly wealthy, but who also were not unskilled laborers in a factory barely getting by. They included merchants and mid-level bureaucrats, as well as a few skilled laborers whose jobs had not been replaced by industrial machines.

The middle class rose in size during this time thanks to new markets and economic opportunities, but was not a dominant feature of European societies. Instead, daily life was dominated by the struggle between the very rich and the very poor.
