Despite a global brand and some glitzy theme parks in Europe and Asia, Disney remains a quintessentially American company. After its deal with 21st Century Fox, Disney will be much more a citizen of the world.

…a host of other assets, totaling roughly $66.1 billion in enterprise value, were added to the table. These include Star India, a group of 58 channels carrying soap operas and cricket to 650 million Indian viewers, and the Fox International Channels, which reach across Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Together they will give Disney scope for vast international expansion.
