A Rhymed Reflection
When dozens of processes/products a country can globalize
Such globalizing country how do other countries recognize?
If there were globalizing indicators
Which globalizing forces would be considered assimilators / motivators?
When constructive, peaceful trends a country could globalize
What proportion of the world population would those trends mobilize?
