Wow, what a question? The first thing is openness and talking, talking, talking. The other side of this is listening, and I mean really listening to what the other person is saying.
The other big thing is compromise, be willing to give up something. This means you have to decide your partner is more important than your wants, not your needs, but your wants.
I speak from some experience having moved to different countries, and having the extra pressure of two cultures trying to co-exist. My wife and I come from different countries and cultures. So, explaining and talking is very important.

Good answers so far- commitment, not turning on each other when bad stuff happens, communcation, etc.
One thing that my husband and I have is a faith in God (cheesy, I know).Other families may have some other faith and that's ok. A shared belief that there is Someone out there that wants us to be happy is vital.
For us, we know that when we're having a hard time in our marriage and family, each of us can pray and God will help us understand each other better. With His help, we can also make the changes necesary to grow and learn through each new situation.

Lots of love, communication, education and the willingness to survive. Being able to not turn against each other when the chips are down.

Commitment, the ability to communicate with one another about anything and face problems head on together.
