Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Answer: Princess Diana's death.

Question: How come?

Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines!

And this is sent to you by a Canadian, using Bill Gates' technology and you are probably reading this on one of the IBM clones that use Taiwanese-made chips, and Korean-made monitors, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by lorries driven by Indians, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, trucked by Mexican illegal aliens, and finally sold to you.

That, my friend, is Globalization

Welsh... My wife is part welsh... They make, let's see... Dogs and Rarebit, right? I think that's about all the welsh contributed... One of my neighbors has a Welsh Corgi and I've heard about a dish called Welsh Rarebit...

;D

Those Sicilian longshoremen are not really the workers and so it get more globalized. Only the union heads are Sicilian and the labor bosses are Irish while the workers are Polish.
