Answer 2

The correct answer is C) resources and technology could be shared across the entire nation.

The industrialization of Italy changed the life of many Italians. It offered jobs in the fabrics where manufacturing needed more hands to operate the machines. Instead of having centralized the production of goods, resources and technology were shared across the entire nation, and fabrics in different parts of Italy allowed prosperity and a better life in many Italian regions.
