Facebook has released its stats on the Year in Review this week, revealing what the most talked about topics on the social media site are.
Throughout the year, there have been a number of events and stories that we have all turned to social media to express our feelings on, and somewhere in the back reaches of Facebook's data hive, they're keeping track of all that information.
With more than a billion mentions (between posts, videos and all sorts), the World Cup was the biggest event of the year (that'll be music to the ears of the lads in FIFA), but there are plenty of other topics that we were fascinated by.
