    The document discusses the history of colonialism in Asia from the 1500s onwards, with the Portuguese invasion of Malacca in 1511, Spanish rule in the Philippines, and French control over Indochina. It also examines the rapid economic progress seen in Japan from the 1950s-70s and more recently in China, which has greatly impacted global trade. Western culture has spread significantly as well, with McDonaldization and the adaptation of American music, films and fashion, though cultural diversity is being threatened. Politically, democratic values and liberal regimes have risen while authoritarian governments have fallen.
