Hi jessicahedinger

Here are some more things that Western European cultures have in common and that American culture does not have in common:

(a) Christianity has less fervor; there are fewer fundamentalists and fewer political decisions influenced by religion.
(b) Stronger belief in human rights, e. g. against torture, against death penalty, higher tax rates, etc.
(c) the government supports a lot of theaters, opera houses, museums, art galleries etc.
(d) at least in the UK, France and Germany, social interactions with strangers are generally less openly friendly, wait staff will affect less interest and so on.
(e) at least in the UK, France and Germany, social interactions with friends and relatives are deeper.
