Alstin: Difference between revisions

==Culture==

Mainstream Alstinian culture is a Western culture largely derived from a number of factors including: the nation's key commercial location centered on the Alstinian Isle; its history as a western liberal democracy and a major power; traditions originating from foreign immigrants; and cultural practices stemming back several centuries. This has resulted in a cultural mix that has been described as both a homogenizing melting pot, and a heterogeneous salad bowl in which immigrants and their descendants retain distinctive cultural characteristics while also promoting Alstinian cultural values as a whole. The substantial cultural influence of the United Republic has led it to be described as a "cultural superpower".
