Let G be a group definable in a theory T . We study the action of G on the space of its external types. We introduce the notion of a strongly generic subset of G . We prove that there is a bounded orbit of external types if and only if there are boundedly many externally definable strongly generic subsets of G . In this situation, we prove the following. The group G 00 exists and equals G ∞ , also the size of every bounded orbit of an external almost periodic type is bounded by 2 ℵ0 . The ideal subgroups of the space of external types of G up to isomorphism do not depend on the choice of a model of T . If additionally T is weakly o‐minimal, then G is definably amenable.
