Between the years of 3500 to 500 BCE, first and second-wave civilizations in Afro-Eurasia and the Americas, were similar in that they continued with their uses of hierarchy and the rises and falls of their states and empires. However, a change had occurred that caused them to appear different; second-wave civilizations globalized in a way that they were able to communicate and exchange with several parts of the world, and first-wave civilizations did not have the luxury of being able to interact with other regions.

During the years 3500 BCE and 500 CE taking place in Afro-Eurasia and the Americas, First-Wave Civilizations differed from Second Wave Civilizations by not being specific in location, whereas the Second-wave Civilizations were in very specified areas of a country. Due to the eight features in a society, the continuity between the two is the fact that they all have at least eight features, all containing the same ideas.

Throughout the years of 3500 to 500 BCE the first and second wave civilizations in Afro-Eurasia began to grow and take shape, yet between the years there were certain continuities and changes such as the population; as we hit the second civilization an increase of population occurred, being much larger than the first civilizations; however, one did that continued through the fall of first civilizations can be gender roles, that women remain subordinate to the men. But, another thing that changed was improved technology, in China, creating silk-handling machinery, gun powder and more more.
