Cultural CHaracteristics

Today in Human Geography, we looked over cultural characteristics. The three main examples of cultural characteristics are religion, language and ethnic heritage. In the real world, ethnic heritage is an example by having a country like Japan have one ethnic heritage which is Japan. On the other hand, the United States has ethnicities of all sorts. Everywhere one looks there is a white, black, Hispanic Asian you name it. Language in the real world has a country like Canada speak English and French. Mostly all of Canada speaks English except Quebec which speaks French. There was even a point where Quebec wanted to separate themselves from Canada since they were mostly French speaking. The United States once again are really diverse in language despite broadcasting being mainly English. Our class only covered the main religions for religions. They are Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism Islam and Hinduism.
