The correct answer is option 1. Birmingham in the U.K. is famous for its Iron and Steel industry. This industry has played a significant role in the city`s economic growth and development. Birmingham`s proximity to important coal and iron ore deposits, along with its access to canals and later railways, made it an ideal location for the iron and steel industry to thrive. The industry was a key driver of the Industrial Revolution in the region, with numerous foundries and mills being established. Birmingham became known as the "Workshop of the World" due to its dominance in the production of iron and steel goods. The industry`s legacy can still be seen in the city`s architecture and culture today.
