Entertaiment is any activity that keeps people amused, engaged, diverted, or happy. People may create entertainment themselves, such as when they spontaneously invent a game; participate actively in entertainment, such as when they play sport as a hobby; or consume entertainment passively, such as when they watch a film. Entertainment often focuses on themes that the brain was evolved to react deeply to, such as backstabbing, murders and other social themes. Entertainment is a large industry and is an important part of the global economy.
