1864 CE to 1875 CE

Industrialization comes to Denmark in the second half of the nineteenth century.

The nation's first railways had been constructed in the 1850s, and improved communications and overseas trade allow industry to develop in spite of Denmark's lack of natural resources.

Trade unions developed, starting in the 1870s.

There is a considerable migration of people from the countryside to the cities, and Danish agriculture becomes centered on the export of dairy and meat products.
