In Ancient Egypt, not everyone was mummified. The burial process which made one part of the Egyptian culture rather popular while sensationalized in movies was in fact more of a privilege than tradition. The eviscerated, dried, and bandaged corpse also known as the mummy was an expensive and long process fitted for the wealthy members of the society while others were buried in the depths of desert pits. The distinction of social classes has long existed and even today we battle the idea of equality.

One of the most obvious advantages of globalization is the export market. Production from developed countries can now be sold to other developing countries. It can create employment opportunities and reduce poverty. But underneath the surface more is usually said than done. Major corporations do get an enormous share of profit from the variety of goods made available to other parts of the world, through cheaper labor markets.
