    Dunbar’s Number is the number of people who can be in a group where you know the status of everyone’s relationship to everyone else.

    It means if you live in a village of Dunbar’s Number population, and you see two randomly selected villagers interacting, you already know the context of their relationship so you can interpret what their interactions mean.

    You know if they are friends, enemies, lovers, coworkers, etc.
