Culture

Culture refers to the shared beliefs, values, norms, customs, practices, and artifacts of a particular group or society. It encompasses the ways of life and social behaviors of a community, including traditions, languages, arts, and social institutions. Culture influences how individuals perceive the world, interact with one another, and express their identities. It can be transmitted through socialization and education, often evolving over time while retaining core aspects. Culture is both a unifying force and a means of diversity, shaping how groups understand their place in the world and relate to different cultures.
