This chapter views the trend and cyclic components of major absolute relative indicators world dynamics. We show that second millennium ce saw a rather remarkable change in trends technological development, population GDP dynamics as compared to first ce. While growth (first all, per capita) was still quite weak 1000–1800 ce, many (population, GDP, cumulative number inventions, so on) followed pronounced hyperbolic upward trends, which we will try explain this chapter. Starting from Neolithic Revolution, became 100 times larger by 1800. Although wellbeing did not much terms food consumption, progress made it possible for greater people live on planet. As dynamics, briefly describe nature impact sociodemographic cycles (basically inherent all complex agrarian systems). The early stages globalization (along with climatic changes) were directly related gradual synchronization throughout parts Afro-Eurasian world-system.
