# Entry Connections

The **Connections** subpage shows how an entry is tied to the rest the world. It's a central place to understand its relationships, associations, and links to other entries.

## Manual Connections

By default, this page displays manual connections that have been added directly to this entry. These can include any kind of relationship or link you want to define, such as a character's mentor, a city's allied factions, or a family's birthplace.

You can add as many connections as needed to reflect your world's complexity. Mirrored connections will also appear here.

## Related Elements

Below the manual connections, you'll find a **Related** elements section. This automatically lists other entries that reference this one, for example, if a character or location links to this entry in a custom field or through another relationship.

```{admonition} Info
Mentions (e.g., @Character) in entry text are not included in this list.

## Premium Feature: Visual Connection Map

If you're using a [Premium campaign](https://kanka.io/premium), you can access the **Connection Map**, a visual tool that displays the entry's connections and related elements in a dynamic, interactive graph. It's a great way to see the big picture and explore how your entries connect across the world.

As a campaign admin, you can set your [campaign to default](/features/campaigns/campaign-settings) to the visual map view instead of the table view when accessing the Connections subpage.
