Despite football fans rarely agreeing upon anything, there is one belief that we all hold โ€“ Australian Rules Football is the greatest sport on earth.

With its laws forged from the Anglo-Celtic ethos of a fair go and its expansiveness born from the indigenous game of Marngrook, our game is more than simply entertainment โ€“ it is a true expression of identity.

It is quintessentially Australian, so why wouldn't we want to share it?

Due to this common agreement of sporting superiority and in an effort to spread the good word, we have seen our code exported to various far-flung locations around the globe.

Although these excursions may have ultimately proven futile, it is worth remembering the endeavors all the same.

As none of us will be able to jet off internationally any time in the foreseeable future, here is a list you can live vicariously through, comprised of the eleven countries Aussie Rules has officially been played in.

With a contemporary population of nearly 1.4 billion people, it should come as no surprise that our code has previously attempted to capture India's attention.

What should bemuse the average punter is that we have not bothered to back it up in the last 52 years.

After being decimated by bitter rivals West Perth in the 1969 WANFL Grand Final, East Perth travelled to the sub-continent for a pair of exhibition games against Subiaco.

Not much is known of the duo of contests played in Delhi, apart from the fact that the Royals smoked the Lions by 82 points in the first of two, with the Subiaco making a better fist of it in the latter.

According to internet records, an approximate average of 4,000 spectators were said to have spun the turnstiles for each game.

Despite the aforementioned lack of a return, there have been plans laid to do so.

The WAFL announced that a post-season exhibition in Mumbai between the eventual Grand Finalists - Subiaco and South Fremantle - would take place, however, this notion quickly fell in a heap.

The AFL's 2008 blueprint for a pair of exhibition games in Delhi and Mumbai were also binned.
