7 Siler Lael Siler Zepelin 4 AP World History 26 May 2011 Globalization: Changing the Nature of Nations Globalization has radically shifted from concept to reality. The nature of imperialism transitioned from neighboring groups conquering one another for territorial expansion to entire nations competing for global economic, political, and cultural power. Today, the exponential growth of technology and industry is creating one globalized economy. This global economy has found a way to transcend the boundaries large hegemonic powers historically could never unite, changing the nature of nations.

Globalization – the process of global social, economic, and environmental change that leads to an increasingly integrated world. 1 in 11 people (worldwide) have Internet access. Exotic and invasive species are transported to faraway continents in a matter of days through ocean going vessels and airplanes where they have no known predators. An abundance of atmospheric pollutants from car exhaust is found in Greenland, although this country doesn’t own too many cars, from the US mainland.
