My parents were born in Afghanistan, but they are originally from India. They came to Germany when they were about 17 years old. They like to live here because they have a good Job here and earn good Money. Also the whole Family lives here in Germany. They like to live here because it is a rich and save Country and also because there is almost no racism.

Hallo my name is Upasna
My parents are from India and I live with that Indian culture .They moved before 20 years to Germany and are happy with that decision. I am also happy because on hand hand I have the German culture and on the other hand the Indian cultur witch is full of tradition and diversity . My experience to this topic are different. Some people see me as a German and accept me other see me as an immigrant but accept me also
I think also because of that I was born here and speak German very well . This is a kind of globalisation because we are originally from india /Afghanistan but moved here and speak the same language we speak in India and keep up some traditions as far we can .
So I identify with both countries and are happy that i love here because we are here more economical developed and have better chances to live a life without problems and big differences in one culture like India where is a big difference between rich and poverty at the same city
I hope to gave you a good example for kind ofglobalisation

We choosed our phone. In our case it is an iPhone 7. It is produced by the company Apple in China. The total manufacturing costs are around $225. At ist release it costs around $869. When you throw your iPhone away (into Special bins), the companies who collect the garbage seperate the different components of the phone. We didnt found out where the worthless components go but the ones which are worthy are reused for new phones.

My Grandparents came from Macedonia to Germany around 1960. It was really new for them and hard because they had to learn the German language for getting a good job and integrating.  I identify myself with the Macedonian culture, because a part of my family lives there, I speak the language and am familiar with the norms and customs of the country. This has to do a lot with globalization, because I think I wouldn’t be familiar with the culture of Germany if my grandparents hadn’t migrate here. I also wouldn’t know that language and couldn’t communicate or bind connections with people in Germany. My education also wouldn’t be the same and I could be less educated in things like IT or technic.

 I use my shoes every day. It’s produced by the brand Nike in China. The production of those costed around 20 cent and I bought them for 100 Euros. When I’ll throw it away they’ll land in a garbage and then they’ll go to a garbage dump where they’ll be burned off. The most powerful companies are China National Petroleum Corporation with $262.6 billion revenue in 2017 and Toyota Motor with $254.7 billion revenue also in 2017 (https://financesonline.com/top-10-richest-companies-in-the-world-in-2018-by-revenue/). We saw that companies which trade with electric devices and cars are the most powerful and earn the most money with their products/ business.

The worldwide movement toward economic, financial, trade, and communications integration. Globalization implies the opening of local and nationalistic perspectives to a broader outlook of an interconnected and interdependent world with free transfer of capital, goods, and services across national frontiers. However, it does not include unhindered movement of labor and, as suggested by some economists, may hurt smaller or fragile economies if applied indiscriminately (http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/globalization.html).From Loreen and Julia.

globalization enables us to trade goods and servieces more easier and cheaper .In addition to that fact I´d also like to mention that ideas and scientific knowledge can be shred a lot quicker which would mean that scientist ,pioneers and inventors from all over earth can work much more efficient and faster ,which would mean that our global R&D output would increase significantly

1.	You should push to reduce methane emissionsMethane is 84 times stronger than carbon dioxide ver a 20-year-time. Leading scientist estimate this gas is responsible for over a quarter of observed climate changes.2.	Use energy wisely It saves your money and is also better for our climate. For example just change your light bulbs to energy efficient ones.3.	Consume less, waste lessWe use too much, too much of it is toxic and we don’t share it very well. But that’s not the way things have to be. Together, we can build a society based on better not more, sharing shelfishness, community not division.-The Story of Stuff

I think the world is today a less violent place than before a couple of years, but there will always be violence and war in the world, because the human is an animal that will always fight.

The WTO  is an organization for trade opening. It is a forum for governments to negotiate trade agreements. It is a place for them to settle trade disputes. It operates a system of trade rules. Essentially, the WTO is a place where member governments try to sort out the trade problems they face with each other.

The NATO is an intergovernmental military alliance between  29 North American and European countries that wants to keep the world peace.

The UN e.g maintains international security, protects human rights, delivers humanitarian aid and promotes sustainable development.

My parents migrated from Afghanistan to Germany. My dad once told me about it and he said that he has experienced a lot through his journey. It all started when he had got his flight ticket to Germany. The plane has arrived in Frankfurt and then he has lived in a refugee camp, but not for a long time. Some of the people he had met there (25 years ago) are still close friends of my parents and I am also friends with their children. The daughter of one of my dad´s friends, Yalda, is one of my best friends and we meet almost every week. And because she is also from Afghanistan we connect pretty well and we sometimes talk about our culture and how we feel about. It always depends on the topic we are talking about, so you can not conclude with which culture you identify. If we talk about food, we both prefer the orient way but if we talk about clothing and styles we like the european way. That doesn´t mean that we would not like to wear traditional dresses but there are only a few shops and places where you could possibly buy them. That is why you have to ask your relatives who live in Afghanistan if they can send single pieces to you. If you are on a, wedding you can see the different cultural influences in the clothing style.  That means that there are many girls wearing a "european" dress but also many girls that wear the traditional dresses. I think the afghan culture is brought with the former migrants and because of our surroundings (e.g. worldwide trends), different cultures and habits merge and become one.

Definition of globalization in my own words:

# data[].attributes.body
Globalization describes how the different countries in the world interact to with each other and get closer. Basically all people around the world are very close because of the advanced technology we got nowadays. In this way we can trade and exchange information easily and this would lead to opportunities of expanding our economies, for example. Anyway, there are still some hidden disadvantages like exploiting undeveloped countries due to their extremely low salaries, so they can produce in a much cheaper way.

An imported product I use every day is my phone from the brand Apple. This is called                 ,,Iphone 6s” and was released for the first time on September in 2015 but I eventually bought it a couple of years later to avoid paying the ridiculous retail price of 739 € containing the least Gigabytes. This means you would have paid even more if you wanted more GBs. 64GB cost 849€ and the version with 128GB  959€. The Iphone contains parts from Germany, Taiwan, China, Japan, Switzerland and from the Netherlands as well, but at end all these parts are screwed together in China with a Taiwanese company giving orders. The production cost have a total of 238€, from which 9€ correspond to the Chinese manufacturer. Know you have an idea of how much profit Apple makes.
