}Anders and All, :) 
 Janet Abbate's "Inventing the Internet" (MIT 1999) is one good
resource for some of this discussion, but not so much for dates of
international articulations of the internet. 
 The book is referenced here at the Internet Studies' subject at wiki
World University and  School -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Internet_Studies [1] - like 
Wikipedia with MIT OCW.
 I'll add some of such resources as we mention them.

 According to the English Wikipedia article on ARPANET Norway got 
 connected in 1968, one year before the net even existed. Beat that, 
 Canada! :p

 (Seriously though, according to NORSAR we got online in 1973.
