Power has many different meanings. It could be the ability to do or act; capability of doing or accomplishing something. It could also be political or national strength. However, I think that the power is the ability to rule or control countries, company, and people who/which are weak. In order to support my definition of the power, there are three examples from what we have learned throughout the year: literatures, imperialism, and the industrial revolution.
First of all, from the books what we have gone through such as Animal Farm and Julius Caesar, Napoleon and Julius Caesar had the power. Napoleon had the power to control the animals in the farm. All the animals followed what Napoleon commanded. Julius Caesar also had the power like Napoleon did. Julius was the dictator/ruler of the Roman Empire. Everyone followed him; however, because of his power, people were jealous and murdered Julius Caesar. As you can see, these two literatures prove my definition of power.
Second of all, imperialism is one of the examples. Imperialism is policy by a stronger nation to attempt to create an empire by dominating weaker nations economically, politically, culturally, or military. During imperialism time, the rich and powerful countries controlled the weak or smaller countries. For example, European countries were strong and they controlled Africa. Africans soon became their slaves and Europeans "used" them as animals or tools. Therefore, imperialism could prove my definition of power.
Last example is the industrial revolution. The Industrial Revolution had its early beginnings in Great Britain. England first created the factories so people wanted to come into England to work. England had the power so they mostly had the opportunity to what they want to do. For example, the textile industry was centered in New England. However, another country soon followed England: America. Samuel Slater smuggled himself into the factories and sailed the machinery plans to America. America started to have a competition against England. Yet since England was the first country to start the factories, England still has the power.
In conclusion, is the ability to rule or control countries, company, and people who/which are weak yet it has many different meanings. The three examples which were the literatures, imperialism, and the industrial revolution prove my definition. These three examples are related to the most two important words: "control" and "rule."
Globalization is the act of making global or worldwise in scope or application. There are some net effects of globalization which divides into positive effects and negative effects. The examples of positive effects would be, firstly, people were able to buy things which were from other countries. Secondly, middle class people is getting richer and richer. Thirdly, there are more foreign jobs such as people in India can get more job opporutnities. Also, lastly, they could upgrade themselves by working with other countries. As you can see, the main point of the positive effects is now, people can work in different countries.
