in pretty much every way possible. Religion and Language are the two top factors leading to cultural differences.

Language and religion had divided the great USSR because many republics wanted to have Islam as their religion particularly those that are located in Asia. Religion and Language created the unification of the states that now compose UK because of English and Christianity.

Beachbum, That's not only incorrect, it's terribly bad observation. By your answer, you are saying that any "non-English" speaking country in Europe is Islamic? Does this mean France, Germany, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Poland, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy, Greece, Albania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Finland, and Denmark are Islamic? The answer is NO. They are predominately Christian countries AND do not use English as their primary language.
ehtesham k: There are NO European countries in which Arabic is spoken as the primary language. Also, besides only small parts of Albania and Bosnia, there are no Islamic countries in Europe at all. And please, do not say Turkey, because Turkey is as about as European as Jordan, Lebanon or Egypt are (not).

It's really simple:
Western Europe's cultural divide is as obvious as the nose on your face and I would have added race to that question also...
The divide is cut between Islam and Christianity.
The Christian section tends to be more English-speaking, whereas, the Islamic side tends to be of all languages.. anything non-English.
