Milgram's six degrees

Milgram's six degrees of separation is the idea that any two people in the world can be connected through a chain of acquaintances that is, on average, no more than six links long. This concept highlights how social networks and relationships create a surprisingly small-world phenomenon, making it possible to connect with almost anyone through a few intermediaries. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of people globally and how information, influence, or even surprises can travel quickly across social circles.
