Opened up new resource rich but sparsely populated lands in North America [ US and Canada], Australia, New Zeland and South Africa. These lands received millions of immigrants and vast amounts of foreign investments, principally from England opened up new lands to food, raw material and production. This period of globalization came to an end with the brake-out of the WW-I in 1914. Second period of rapid globalization started with the end of WW-II in 1945 and extended to about 1980 [private banks and sovereign credit]. Characterized by rapid increase in International Trade, Dismantling heavy trade protections started during the GD-1929 and WR-II.

5 International Trade and Nation’s Standard of Living The US stretching across a continent and rich in a variety of human and natural resources, can produce, can produce, relatively efficiently, most of the products it needs. Contrast this with the situation of small industrial countries, such as Switzerland or Austria, that have a few very specialized resources, and produce and export a much smaller range of products, and import all the rest. Even large industrial countries such as Japan, Germany, France, England, Italy and Canada rely crucially on international trade (large countries import large amounts of goods and services). A rough measure of the economic relationship is the ratio of M and X to the country’s GDP.
