Cultural differences between the United States and China.

China's culture has a long history. During the five thousand years' changes in China, China's culture has experienced vicissitudes and contains many unique wisdom. The historical foundation of American culture is short because the history of the United States is not long enough and rich enough.

2. Different family values

China's family values tend to be family, filial piety, respect for the elderly and love for the young, and pay attention to the inheritance from generation to generation, while American family values are relatively more free and diverse, and American family education advocates encouragement, independence and freedom.

3. Cultural essence is different.

China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times, and "ceremony" is the essence of China culture. The ancient "ritual shooting" not only infiltrated and integrated the splendid historical civilization of China for thousands of years, but also deeply influenced the world. It is an important part of human civilization and a moral code that human beings abide by in order to maintain and develop excellent social order and ecological harmony. It is the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom.

The essence of American culture is freedom and democracy, emphasizing personal value, pursuing democracy and freedom, advocating pioneering and competition, and stressing rationality and practicality. Its core is individualism: the individual is supreme, pursuing personal interests, and emphasizing the ultimate realization of personal value through personal struggle and personal self-design.
