 * The FIFA World Cup bringing people from all over to world to one nation. South Africa had 10 stadiums for all the matches in the competition, 5 of the stadiums were there before and they were just renovated; Eliss Park, Soccer City, Loftus Versfeld, the Royal Bafokeng Stadium and the Free State Stadium. This will not only bring economical advantages, but social advantages. People will get jobs for building and renovating these stadiums which means that their lives will improve. Also, the people who play in the stadiums will have more space to show their pride and culture of their country. Many jobs were also made because 2 of the ten stadiums were made from scratch and another 2 were rebuilt. This means that their will be new jobs available for the community and a lot of South Africans live in ghettos, slums and shanty towns. These projects will give them hope of a life outside the slums and the tourism the event will attract is enormous which is great for local businesses.**


 * For the FIFA World Cup in South Africa, 32 national teams qualified. That means that 32 different nationalities would definitely be coming to South Africa they would share their culture and their ways of life which could even affect the host country or other people's lives. But, not only do people come to the World Cup to see their team play and get the experience of new cultures, they come to see the football, so people who's country hasn't qualified come anyway. Therefore increasing international mindedness by learning about other people, be that by eating their food or making conversation with local people and buying things from local businesses and souvenir shops.**


 * At the World Cup people came from all over the world wearing different types of cloths or speaking in different languages. It really was a sporting event that sparked cultural connection between so many nations. One example of this is that South Africans used a horn called a Vuvuzela which makes a loud honking noise. They used it to show their support, but they were not alone, almost everyone who went to the World Cup bought a vuvuzela and they whole crowd in every game was buzzing will the sound of vuvuzelas. This is great because they will help local businesses by buying the vuvuzelas, but also blending in with the culture and customs of another nation.**
