Salvadoran culture is influenced by Native American culture (Lenca people, Cacaopera people, Maya peoples, Pipil people) as well as Latin American culture (Latin America, Hispanic America, Ibero-America). Mestizo culture and the Catholic Church dominates the country.
African slaves arrived in El Salvador in the sixteenth century, but over the years they have assimilated and mixed into the general population. Nowadays you see that typical mixture of African, European, and indigenous peoples that make up the bulk of Latin America. The culture of the Caribbean Coast of Central America is not a thing in El Salvador and never has been.

In terms of the origin of human beings, there is something in common between the East and the West, that is, people are made of earth.

In China, There is a divine named Nu Wa. One day she dipped in muddy water with a rope and threw out many small mud spots. She blew them, and all the small mud spots became human, who look like her, running towards her and called her mother. So humans were born. Divine culture also began to spread.

In the West, there are also stories about God makes human, but it is interesting that they are also made of mud.

Humans have a common origin, but different environments have created different understandings of things around them. For example, in China, when people first came into this world, who is truthful and compassion. Later, he will be polluted by the social environment and became evil, but there is a wish inside the human yearning for nice qualities, so the growth of the Chinese people is constantly looking for returning to the original and returning to the divine nature.

In the West, the Bible says that people are born guilty, and they need to pass through the salvation of Jesus Christ and their own prayers and confessions before they can return to a better world in the future.

Both Orientals and Westerners have goodness and divinity. we believe that there are divines in this world.

Mexican Culture :-)
Hello. My name is Miriam Alvarez and I will speak about the culture of Mexico 🇲🇽.

Holidays and celebrations

The Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which is celebrated on Dec. 12, is a major Mexican holiday celebrating the appearance of the Virgin Mary to an Indian man in the first years of Spanish rule. She is the patron saint of the country. This is followed closely by Posadas, a nine-day celebration in which people re-enact Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem to search for a place to stay. Families go from door to door carrying candles and singing, asking for shelter until the owners open the door, at which point the party begins.

The Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos), celebrated on Nov. 2, is a day set aside to remember and honor those who have died.

Carnival is also celebrated in many communities throughout Mexico to mark the period before Lent.

Independence Day, marking the country's separation from Spain in 1810, is celebrated on Sept. 16.

Cinco de Mayo, which marks a Mexican military victory over the French in 1862, is more widely celebrated in the United States than it is in Mexico.
