The Six Degrees of Separation Theory

The Six Degrees of Separation Theory suggests that any two people in the world are connected through, at most, six intermediate acquaintances. In other words, you can reach anyone globally through a chain of friends, friends of friends, and so on, with no more than six steps. This idea highlights how interconnected our social networks are and emphasizes the small-world phenomenon, illustrating that the world feels more connected than it might seem at first glance. It underscores the power of social links in creating a global web of relationships.
