// I think Australia is Globally connected by: //
We are globally connected by the "WWW" -world wide web(the internet) because we communicate to others by emails, Facebook, Skype, etc. We are also globally connected by family culture and history because our ancestors were from other countries. Defence jobs and war also make us globally connected because our people defend our country overseas to protect us form danger and protect our future. Our Allies make us globally connected aswell because they help us and we help them in natural disasters and in times of need.

= Australia's Connection To And With The World Through Sport =

//Australia is globally connected through sport because we travel internationally to see people play and play against other countries, The Olympic games and Commonwealth Games.//
//**For e.g:** Soccer players travel to (e.g.) France to play against them in a game. Along with them Australia's team fans also travel to France to watch them play, get to know people in France and see the wonderful things that happen in France or are in France (the different foods, Eiffel tower, //// etc.) this also comes into the social connection that Australia has with the world. // //Soccer= World cup //

//Football= Grand finals //

//Swimming+Athletics+many other sports= Olympic Games //



Australia's Connection To And With The World Through Tourism
//Australia's connection to and with the world is also to do with Tourism because when citizens from other countries come/move to Australia, they teach us things about their culture and country. Most importantly, our "Big things"* here in Australia are what most tourists come to Australia for. The other reason for most people moving to Australia is that Australia is a lucky country and we have more facilities to care for others, your community and because their country might be in trauma and destruction from a natural disaster or their country is filled with diseases or their country isn't as lucky. //
