How does the traditional theory of the formation of the galaxy explain the origin of globular clusters?

Traditional theory suggests that globular clusters formed early in the history of the Milky Way from collapsing gas clouds, creating dense clusters of stars that have remained relatively unchanged over time. These clusters are considered some of the oldest structures in the galaxy, dating back to the early stages of galaxy formation. The stars within globular clusters are tightly bound gravitationally, orbiting the galactic center in regions where gas and dust have mostly been depleted.
