globalisation being the growing integration of economies and society all over the world due to technological advancements in transportation ,communication and some other factors ,it will therefore be incorrect and inapplicable to isolate Zimbabwe and say it is resistant to the forces of such an improvement globally which as managed to intertwine the globe as a whole and provide poverty eradication ,economic support and reduced importing cost and other loose trade barriers .
however zimbabwe is finding it difficult to trade globally due to the sanctions imposed by the west thereby having very limited exposure into the international markets and only confined to its look east policy.

Zimbabwe is predominantly made up of the indegenous Africans, mainly the Shona and Ndebele people, Caucasian and Indian/Asian.
Where is the home of the Shona and Ndebele tribes?
Their homeland is in what is now modern Zimbabwe and it's surrounding regions. The Ndebele tribes were subjected to genocide by Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe after the country (formerly called Rhodesia) became independent from Britain in 1980- the Ndebele had supported Mugabe's rival NAPU party in the ensuing general election which was led by Joshua Nkomo. It is known as 'The Matebeleland Genocide' and lasted for a period of 3-4 years, following an agreement between Mugabe and North Korean President Kim-Il Sung for North Korea to train a section of the Zimbabwean Army, known as 'The Fifth Brigade', to suppress 'malcontents'. Hundreds, if not thousands, of Ndebele people were subjected to mass executions, atrocities and abuses by Mugabe's regime.

When was the fall of Zimbabwe?
Zimbabwe fell in 1998 when foreign currency was used to fund the Zimbabwe army fighting in the DRC war. War veterans were also paid a further $50 000 each as compensation for fighting in the liberation war in the 70's. Later on in the year 2000 war, veterans seized white-owned farms. This was done in an unproper manner with an effort to lure back voters for Zanu PF. The effects continue as we speak with inflation, cholera, AIDS, starvation, no water, no fuel, no food, no government.
