**//I believe that Australia is globally connected by many reasons. Some are Allis, Internet and Sports.//**

 * **//Allis- Allis make a lot of impact on this question because when we go to war we ask our Allis to come and help. And we or they help each other.//**
 * **//Internet- Internet has one of the biggest impact because there is so many ways to interact by using the internet. Such as Facebook, Hotmail and Twitter. By using this we can interact by these social networks to the world, and plan things with someone across the world.//**
 * **//Sports- Sport is one of the biggest things people play to get fit or to have fun, or even have a competition. That is why I believe that it can pronely have the BIGGEST impact ever. So many people join in the sporting comps such as Commonwealth games, the Olympics, and Grand finals. That is another big way to connect with the world.//**

=//**This is why Australia can be globally connected!!! :) :) :)**// =

//**Thank you for your response Amy :)**//

=My Articles on how is Australia globally connected? =

//**Article 1:**//

//**This one is about the Melbourne Cup, when it was on I heard that the first Australian come 7th. So that means the horse's who came 1st to 6th were from different Countries, so all the Jockeys who raced in the Cup were globally connected though this one thing. And it is also very recognized from "The Cup that stops the Nation". :)**//

//**Article 2:**//

//**We are globally connected by our sports because everyone in the world get together for the sports. Such as when we are in finals the other countries or states get together and make sure that we know who you are supporting. And we all want our team or person to win so we Australia support our person or team. And this gets up globally connected with the world. :)**//

//**Wow that is very interesting about the Melbourne Cup. Good thinking!**//

//**Thanks!!! :)**//
=//**First Response: How are we socially connected through communication?**// =

//**We are socially connected by communication in many ways because communication is a really big thing these days and everyone uses it. Some ways to communicate with the world socially are Facebook, Hotamil, Twitter, Skype, Face time, MSN and many many more.**//

<span style="background-color: #c0c0c0; color: #0075ff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">//**We also use A LOT of technology like IPhones, IPods, IPads, Computers, Laptops, Home Phone and many more! This has a lot of impact on this topic because everyone this days are using one, two, three or even more a day! So the use of technology is growing and growing each day and it still hasn't finished.**//

<span style="background-color: #c0c0c0; color: #0075ff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">//**We also connected though communication by media, news, magazines, newspapers and there are so many that I can't name them all. We use this every single day because that is how we connect, it also it a big deal because once something new is happening they quickly update it.**//

<span style="background-color: #000000; color: #d214d2; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;"> **//And this is why I believe that we are//** //**socially connected through communication! :)**//

 * //<span style="background-color: #00ff00; color: #ff0000; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 130%;">Australia loves sport but not as much as other countries! We Australia globally connect with the world from our sports in varies events. Such as the Olympics, Commonwealth games, Grand finals and many many more! It might bring fights but on the other hand it can bring as closer as a world, we can make friends with other people on other teams from other countries. But most importantly we come to watch our sport and cheer on our team that we are going for. :) //**=====

==== //**It connects us to the world by many things. For instances our Aussie icons the Harbor Bridge, the Opera house and Darling Harbor. Also the things that people want to see or eat like the Beaches, Kangaroos, Food and Sport. Some of the foods are meat pie, steak, pavlova and lamintons. And some sport are Cricket, League, and many more. When tourist come here they go back to their country and tell all their friends how good Australia is, so they want to come and visit and see if Australia really is good. And that means our economy rises, by them buying food, clothes, they maybe get a job, petrol and they might buy a gift to remember Australia. And we let tourists come here to Australia and many of them deiced to live here, so that makes Australia much more popular and more well known. So there are many things that can connect us to the world. :)**// ====
