The Cultures
As definition of cultures we can’t get: A way of live of a group of people the behaviors, beliefs, values and symbols that they accept generally without thinking about them, and that are passed along by communication and imitation from one generation to the next. According to us a culture of a nation is like their soul,
Their life, that means they can do anything to
Keep their culture no matter where they may find themselves
The world is composed of diverse cultures.
Such as the cultures of Honduras, Haiti, Salvador and Dominican Republic
Let’s talk about them.
HAITI: Haiti is in the Caribbean, the culture of Haiti is an eclectic mix of African and European elements due to the French colonization of Haiti, as is evidenced in the Haitian language, music and religion
The culture also encompasses additional contribution from native Taino and Spanish imperialism.
Like Food: rice and beans are know as the national dish of Haiti
Like clothing: mostly made of cotton and linen fabrics
Like tradition: Haitian men shake hands on meeting and going away like events we got a lot of, but the most important are
The Independence Day in January and Flag Day in May
That’s why they always say: we can take out a Haitian
From Haiti, but we can’t take out Haiti from a Haitian.
