A country's heritage is all the qualities,traditions,or features of life that have been continued over many years and passed on from one generation to another,especially ones that are of historical importance or that have a strong influence over the society.

Heritage is a basket of goodies passed down to you from your forebears. It contains the history of your family and countrypeople, the language that they spoke, the values that they held dear, the songs that they sang, the stories and jokes they liked to tell, the games that they liked to play, their heroes and villains, their pride in who they were, and their hope that you, in turn, will pass the basket along intact.
One word? Continuum.

sounds like you might need a thesaurus instead of a dictionary.... my pc's thesaurus says...
1. (n.) Something passed from one generation to another:
• legacy
• inheritance
• tradition
• birthright
• family possession
• estate
does that work for you? there are probably on-line thesaurii, too....

Heritage: Where you came from; where your cultures and values derive from
Hope this helps :)
