internationally

Beyond one country

Internationally means across or among nations, involving multiple countries rather than just one: The film was released internationally.

It describes scope that extends beyond national borders: internationally recognized standards, an internationally acclaimed artist.

The word often implies worldwide reach, though it technically means any cross-border context.
