2 The world is said to be shrinking, since you can connect to virtually any where in the world. Everyone is on an equal playing field, since technology has advanced The world might not be flat, but it is virtually flattening The great thing about globalization (in my opinion) is that you can be sitting on your couch in Denver, Colorado, and still be able to talk to someone who is in Japan.

3 Globalization 1- Went from about 1492-1800 Some people started to take leadership and started to take some control When people started taking roles as leaders, the world felt the effect of it People started to integrate Globalization 2- Went from 1800-2000 During this next step in integration and globalization, railroads and steam engines furthered the integration and globalization process Also during this time era, “the telegraph, telephones, the PC, satellites, fiber- optic cable, and the early version of the World Wide Web” became popular and this also attributed to flattening our world. Globalization 3- Went from 2000-Now People can talk, text, take pictures, and anything else you can image anywhere in the world. Now a days, anybody can affect anything and anyone, even if they are just a average person minding their own business.
