What made the disney company merge the worldshowcase half of epcot and the futureworld part together?|156111

I watched a documentary on Disney World and it said that future world and world showcase were both two different ideas for a theme park and i was just wondering what made them merge the two ideas. in my opinion they are nothing alike.

i watched the same one.

what i am guessing is:
1. they didnt want to make 2 separate parks
2. they both deal with the world, life, and culture, so it seemed best to put them together.

EPCOT stands for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow

community i guess is the world showcase part and tomorrow is the futureworld part

Walt Disney innovated the not-traveling carnival called Disneyland.Epcot is a World_s Fair that never stops.Epcot is a combination of human (World Showcase) and corporate (Innoventions) values.Two Epcots would lead to the failure of the corporate one because humans do not hold corporate values.

Walt Disney wanted a balance of corporate and human values.Most have Walt Disney_s view of corporations but a few are libertarian which is a corporate philosophy.One theory why women earn less than men is that they hold human values higher than corporate values.

I think they did it to have some variety at epcot...
and to make it bigger.
at worldshowcase, they dont have big rollercoasters. but in futureworld, they have a lot of stuff to do there for kids.
epcot is considered _the adult park_, so they probably wanted something for the kids (older kids obviously) to do while the adults are having fun at worldshowcase.
basically, when you put these two worlds together, you make a great themepark.

I think the idea of putting these two concepts together came from the Worlds Fairs that had been going on since the mid 1800_s. Two of the major features of these fairs were displays of technological inventions and advancements, and national pavilions showing the culture of various countries.

Neither was working separately. They couldn_t figure out what was missing and then someone noticed they fit together so they moved the model together and viola, it worked.

Both parks on their own were too small. For this reason they merged the two into one larger park.
I agree they are nothing alike.
