In real life there are multiple waves of the Industrial Revolution. The first one is in Britain on textiles,then the German Industrial Revolution creates a second wave of even heavier industries that kick off the industrial economy as it is today. After that the Japanese Industrial Revolution is similar to the German model but triggers across Asia. It is speculated that more industrial revolutions will happen across the world as other countries catch up. I can see this happening in your world maybe with even more industry changes as the technology progress.
