Brant Johnson History 305 Section 8 Globalization by Imperial Expansion The central features of European imperialism; monopolistic Capitalism, the Civilizing Mission, and competition amongst Imperial powers all lead to a shrinking community and globalization of the world’s population.

From the turn of the 20th century, Imperial Germany was the most formidable empire in Europe. Her army was the greatest in number, strength, and discipline. As a result, it was no surprise that the Germans called it the Great War, with the confidence that they would conquer and defeat the whole of Europe quickly.

Throughout history the concept of polygamy is not uncommon in many cultures, and while the elite class in imperial China might have practice polygyny, several wives sharing one husbands, something that was consider as normative, it has brought to my attention that the lower class was involved in what society deemed as taboo, polyandry, the act of one wife with multiple husbands

Sea,” or better known as the Salton Sea, was born. Because the Sea has no natural input of water, it is fed mainly by agricultural runoff from the Imperial and Coachella Valley. Furthermore, when the water evaporates, the dissolved salts are left behind causing an increase in salinity of the water (Salton Sea 1997). For the last fifteen years, the Imperial Irrigation District (IID) in San Diego has been feeding water to the Salton Sea to regulate salinity level

Indonesia was controlled under an imperial power for a very long time. Before the government of Holland took over, Indonesia was held under control by the Dutch East India company for several years (1680-1800).
