In South western America our "culture" is influenced by Spain and Mexico. The mid west by Germans, the south by French, the east by English...somewhere in the mix are the Irish, Italians, Chinese, Polish and others who immigrated to build the great industrial complex. We have benefited from them all, its our culture that gives praise to hot dogs, hamburgers, St Patrick, Columbus Day, tacos and Tequila. We are who we are and proud of it.

The culture of the United States is a Western culture, and has been developing since long before the United States became a country. Its chief early influence was British culture, due to colonial ties with the British that spread the English language, legal system and other cultural inheritances. Other important influences came from other parts of Europe, especially countries from which large numbers immigrated such as Ireland, Germany, Poland, and Italy; the Native American peoples; Africa, especially the western part, from which came the ancestors of most African Americans; and young groups of immigrants. American culture also has shared influence on the cultures of its neighbors in the New World.

That person should grab themself by the ears & pull!

America has a very unique and diversified culture. We are a melting pot of everyone who wanted to become an American. Former immigrants brought and implemented bits and pieces of their cultures into the whole of America rather than clinging to their former homes singular culture. They were proud to become Americans, they did not want to "go home" because America was their home. They taught their children to speak only English and learn American ways rather than their former ways. They dressed as Americans, ate American food, bought American products, learned and celebrated American holidays. And yes, they fought for their freedom that they found in America. Because American culture's foundation is freedom.

You just have to look around you at the way of life for everyone in America versus other countries to see the differences in culture.

Here, since I haven't been to Mexico yet, I'll use Spain. If you look at places like Spain, they'll say we have a different culture because (and this is the blunt obvious, I know) we are NOT part of Spain, and our practice of religion or behaviour is different, along with a lot of other minor and major character traits that define Americans.

Funny, isn't it?
