<Snipped quote by Bacon is fluffy>

Magic is an art in which you bend or contradict natural law with your mind, often with the aid of spells, chants, runes, and other arcane paraphernalia. The elves claim that magic was bestowed to them by the gods, who in turn used it to create the world and everything in it. It takes a lot of time and effort to learn magic, compared to the relatively fast return on investment that industry yields. That, and the fact that the use of magic, as well as magical artifacts, tend to distort natural law in its proximity, made it impractical to employ in cities as industial enterprises expanded.

The elves, naturally, shun industry because of their aptitude for magic. Elven culture also suffers from arrogance towards the other races, making them see industry as a very human thing. The dwarves are disgusted by the exchange of quality for quantity that industry often applies. They strive for perfection and praise individual skill, making the automated process of industries seem like a low thing. That said, there are of course individual elves and dwarves who see the benefits of technological progress and industrialization, but as a culture they do not. The orcs never got a chance. The nomad warrior tribes of the orcs were quickly subdued by the modernized human armies, and while some clans still roam the wilderness as bandits and raiders, most orcs find themselves as slaves working the machines of the factories in human cities.

I hope that answers your questions!
