Britain, which completed the Industrial Revolution, was already a first-class power in the world, and no one doubted the strength of Britain, because the great appeal brought by the power made Britain host the first World Expo. Queen Victoria sent a letter of diplomatic invitation, and 10 countries accepted the invitation. The serious and rigid British mobilized the economic power of the whole country to set up an exhibition for a world fair.

The Victorian style of architecture was bulky and mostly made of bulky stone. At the World's Fair, the British changed their style and built a crystal palace with steel and glass as the main building materials in the famous Hyde Park. The Crystal Palace is 1,700 feet long and 100 feet high, and consumes 4,500 tons of steel and 10 hectares of glass.

The first World Expo opened in a lively atmosphere, with a total length of about 13 kilometers of exhibition tables in an area of 10,000 square meters, which was visited by 6.3 million people during the 23 weeks of the exhibition. Among the 14,000 exhibits are a 24-ton block of coal, a diamond from India, and a taxidermy elephant, while engines, hydro-presses, and textile machinery show visitors the development of modern industry and the boundless imagination of mankind.

This World Expo is not only a "dazzling, colorful" exhibition, but also a pioneer of freedom in the next few decades, heralding the arrival of the era of industrial production to mankind, all exhibits represent the development of modern industry and the infinite imagination of human beings. As a result, the London Fair was recognized as the first World Expo in the modern sense. The Crystal Palace Exposition became a great impetus for science and progress in the twentieth century, and its success made the subsequent World Exposition as a global event like the Olympic Games, and the World Exposition was therefore known as the "Olympic event of economic, scientific and cultural circles".

The first World's Fair was held on May 1, 1851 in London, England, which at that time was the number one power in Europe and the world. In order to show the strength and pride of the country, in 1851 Britain** consumed 4,500 tons of steel and 300,000 yuan.
