What Is Globalisation?

A question asked by many around the world. But really what is Globalisation? To look at what globalisation really is we must first look at what it is to be Globalised. 
Many people see globalisation as the reason for increasing global development inequalities.
>To be Globalised the country will have access to international markets. 
>The country will be involved in international decision making. You will share and receive information across countries. 
>The country economy will be dependent on exporting to some countries and importing from others. 



>Languages will be diverse across the country's population, the country's companies will conduct business in other countries and foreign companies will conduct business in the country.
>Tourism will be an active part of the economy both in terms of recieving tourists and sending tourists.
>Connectivity will be high, internet access, TV coverage and satellite communications will many other countries is commonplace.

"Globalisation is the process by which countries become Globalised or integrated more closely within the wider world in terms of economic activity and connectivity."
