culture

Today in class we went over culture. There are many thigns that can influence a culture in the world. Many characteristics play a part in the way a certain country or place functions. For example, the characteristics are part of the groups everyday life and the ideas and themes which the group will teach to all members is important to keep heritage and culture running smoothly. A few examples of culural similarities can include but is not limited to religion, language, and ethnic heritage. These same characteristics are ones that can link or even divide a region of the world. There are places in the world like Spain where the people there link with the hispanic world. Brasil is the only country in south america that does not speak spanish, but instead speak Portuguese. There are also places in the world such as Switzerland were there are very diverse languages spoken, yet there is little to no argument. Lastly, some places in the world like Canada have two offical langugages which are French and also English.
