how does culture relate to identity?

Question

my culture is uzbek, and i wanna know how it relates to my identity

Answer 1

Are you wondering what the world thinks of the Uzbek culture, or do you mean that you wonder how culture relates to the identity of all people? Personally, I don't know anything about Uzbekistan (other than that it is near Afghanistan and that there is religious persecution there of Jehovah's Witnesses, at least).

Culture relates to our identity because it influences what foods we eat, what we value, how much emotion we're willing to show, who we'd marry, what roles we play in society, and our religious preference among many other things. So, I am curious to know: How does your culture relate to your identity? :)
