Interesting things to note:
> Africa has strong links to Europe and North America but less so to South or Central America
> Spain, Portugal have strong links to Latin America
> India is strongly interconnected between its key cities, with strong connections to the Middle East
> Russia,Brazil and China are almost entirely off the map – probably because of the strength of domestic social networks in those countries
