Global Trade
The exchange of goods, services, and money between countries around the world.
What is it?
Global trade means countries buy and sell things from each other. For example, pepper from India is sold in the United States, and cars from Germany are sold in China. Trade has happened for thousands of years, but today it is faster and bigger than ever. Ships, planes, and the internet make it possible.
Why it matters
Global trade lets people enjoy products from all over the world. It also helps countries specialize in what they do best. But it can also cause problems, like pollution or unfair working conditions. Understanding trade helps you see how connected the world is.
