Culture of North America


The culture of North America refers to the arts and other manifestations of human activities and achievements from the continent of North America. Cultures of North America reflect not only that of the continent's indigenous peoples but those cultures that followed European colonisation as well.

History

Indigenous North American societies emphasized egalitarianism, with European cultures arriving in North America after 1492 from the south and the east. The integration of cultures throughout North America has brought them closer over centuries, but has also led to fears over excessive Americanization.
