Larger Groups
The projective linear group is contained within larger groups, notably:
- Projective semilinear group, PΓL, which allows field automorphisms.
- Cremona group, of birational automorphisms; any biregular automorphism is linear, so PGL coincides with the group of biregular automorphisms.

“Under weak government, in a wide, thinly populated country, in the struggle against the raw natural environment and with the free play of economic forces, unified social groups become the transmitters of culture.”
