Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley trade that the crisscross of trade routes began to link cultures such as cultural diffusion. This means along with the trade of goods, cultures were being passed between civilizations.

5. Social Justice/Human Rights: How are human rights defined in a civilization?

During the Industrial Revolution, children were forced to work. The children were as young as six years old and they worked up to 19 hours a day. The children were paid little to none at all and the conditions of the work environment were horrible. Human rights are defined by the child labor during the Industrial Revolution because the children had no human rights. Children were forced to work, it was not their choice. The conditions of the workplace was horrible and the children were mistreated. They also could not earn anything for their hard work.
