The Commonwealth diaspora in Britain in particular has been identified as a potential asset, allowing Britain to make economic and other connections to other Commonwealth countries, which has been a particularly relevant topic of discussion as Britain charts its post-
Brexit future and decides which groupings of countries to focus on working with (such as with the
European Union).[6][7][8]
Sports
Various groups in the Commonwealth diaspora, such as Caribbean diasporas,[9][10] have been noted for being bound together by the sport of
cricket,[11][12] as well as introducing cricket to a number of countries, such as Canada and the United States.[13][14]
