Globalization has greatly affected history, some benefited while others were harmed by its influences. Everyone is where they are today largely in part of globalization, from the starving children living in African slums to rich men living in the Hollywood hills; it is obvious that depending on what side of globalization countries were on in the past, it will shape the lives of people living there in the future.

Easy communication all over the world is one aspect of globalization. This appears to be a good thing but many bad things can come out of it. Of course global trading and negotiating is a good thing.

They can kidnap some Danes and contact the Danish police or government and ask for a ransom. Globalization also leads to the world “shrinking”. Cultures will be more alike because it is so easy to travel to the other side of the world and learn from other cultures, buy their food or items and adopt it in to your own culture. This can in worst case scenario end up with having a world that is the same no matter where you go. It doesn’t matter if you are in China or in Mexico.…

This has benefited the world as now everyone can get cheap food from McDonalds or a new phone from Apple.…
