Is the World Really Flat?

Is the World Really Flat? From Tribalism to Technology

Our world is rapidly changing. Although America has always been considered a "melting pot," we now find ourselves surrounded by people from all nations on earth. As this pattern of global migration continues, ideas, religions, languages, businesses and cultures expand to all corners of civilization. Although globalization has increased during the last 30 years, the world has always thrived on the exchange of ideas. We will cover the exchange of culture, scientific knowledge, and economics throughout history, from the Silk Road to the Information Superhighway. Come and explore the global village with us!
