  1. Anglosphere

    The Anglosphere is a group of English-speaking nations that share cultural or historical ties with England, and which today maintain close political, diplomatic and military co-operation. While the nations included in different sources vary, the Anglosphere is usually not considered to include all countries where English is an official language, so it is not synonymous with anglophone, though the nations that are commonly included were all once part of the British Empire.The definition is usually taken to include Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States in a grouping of developed countries called the core Anglosphere. This term can also encompass Ireland and less frequently Malta and the Commonwealth Caribbean countries.Public opinion research has found that people in the five core Anglosphere countries consistently rank each other's countries as their country's most important allies in the world. Relations have traditionally been warm between Anglosphere countries, with bilateral partnerships such as those between Australia and New Zealand, the United States and Canada and the United States and the United Kingdom (the Special Relationship) constituting the most successful partnerships in the world.

  1. Anglosphere

    Anglosphere is a neologism which refers to a set of English speaking nations with a similar cultural heritage, based upon their source in colonial settlement by populations originating from Anglo-Saxon England and its Celtic neighbouring populations within the British Isles from Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland, from the sixteenth century onwards, and which today maintain close political and military cooperation. While the nations included in different sources vary, the term Anglosphere usually does not include all countries where English is an official language, although commonly included nations were all once part of the British Empire. In its most restricted sense the term covers the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, which have integrated various military functions under the 1946 UKUSA Agreement, and the 1947 ABCA Armies program, and post British Empire maintain a close affinity of cultural, familial and political links with one another. South Africa and Rhodesia, were until the latter part of the twentieth century considered a part of this group, having been subsequently governmentally taken over by their indigenous continental populations, are no longer.
