The movement of people and goods has always impacted world history. From the earliest human migrations to the modern era, these movements have left their mark (good and bad) on the world. In the time period leading up to the early modern era, major implications of the movement of people and goods were occurring. Empires were being built, explorations of uncharted lands were undertaken and people, goods, ideas and biology were all circulating. This time period saw the permanent linking of two halves of the world. It also saw Western Europe rapidly become a dominant force in the world. This was a time of increasing globalization to a degree that had not yet been seen in World History. |
