Massachusetts is one of the New England states that lie on the Atlantic Ocean. It is a well known fact that the capital city of Massachusetts is Boston. Nevertheless Massachusetts was the frontrunner during the industrial revolution, that took place in 19 th centuries, and as a result played an important role in the establishment of textile industry. As Massachusetts entered the 21 st century the communications, electronics and high technology sectors contributed largely to the economy of the state. Further Massachusetts is famous for renowned schools and institutions. However the most significant drawback, during the evolution from the American Revolution to 21st century, has been the existence of two separate and unequal societies. The first society is earmarked with excellent infrastructural setups in education, housing, hospitals .On the other hand the second society is totally in pathetic condition due to the problems from poverty, lack of infrastructure and many more.
