Often you need to develop web application which need to be in more than one language or display information depending on which country they are being accessed from.
A simple classic way is to have folder files for each language. But this method is error prone and very difficult to manage as the number of language to display in grows.
There is where ASP.net Globalization comes handy.
Localization is the process of adapting the text and applications of a product or service to enable its acceptability for a particular cultural or linguistic market. Translation is the central activity of localization.
Internationalization is planning and implementing products and services so that they can easily be localized for specific languages and cultures.
Globalization is an approach to business strategy that aims to address all of the logistical and organizational challenges an enterprise faces as it expands its supporting content, assets and message across cultures and markets to new clients. Globalization incorporates internationalization and localization to achieve this goal.
