German culture

German culture has spanned the entire German-speaking world. From its roots, culture in Germany has been shaped by major intellectual and popular currents in Europe, both religious and secular. Historically Germany has been called Das Land der Dichter und Denker (the country of poets and thinkers).

Germany is at the centre of Europe, not only geographically, but also in terms of politics and economics. The country is Europe's second most populous after Russia, with more than 81 million people, according to the World Factbook. The German economy is the largest on the continent and the fifth largest in the world.

While German exerts its influence on the countries that border it — Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Switzerland and Poland — all of these cultures have, in varying degrees, had a hand in shaping today’s Germany.

The population is 91.5 percent German, with Turkish being the second largest ethnic group at 2.4 percent, according to the World Factbook. The remaining 6.1 percent is made up primarily of those of Greek, Russian, Italian, Polish, Serbo-Croatian and Spanish descent. - See more at: http://www.livescience.com/44007-german-culture.html#sthash.wSNqAD1Y.dpuf

Ireland is an island in the North Atlantic. It is separated from Great Britain to its east by the North Channel, the Irish Sea, and St George's Channel.

For most of its recorded history, Ireland's culture has been primarily Gaelic. It has also been

influenced by Anglo-Norman, English and Scottish culture.

Gaelic Ireland was a Gaelic political and social order that existed in Ireland from sometime in prehistoric era until the early 17th century. Before the Norman invasion of 1169, Gaelic Ireland comprised the whole island. Due to large-scale emigration from Ireland, Irish culture has a global reach and festivals such as Saint Patrick's Day, Halloween and The Twelfth of July are celebrated all over the world. Irish culture has to some degree been inherited and modified by the Irish diaspora, which in turn has influenced the home country.

The most well known aspect of Irish culture is dance. Throughout the years Irish step dancing has become exceedingly popular due to dance stage shows such as River dance and the Lord of the Dance.

Cuisine
Irish cuisine is a style of cooking originating from Ireland or developed by Irish people. It evolved from centuries of social and political change and mixing between the different cultures on the island, predominantly English and Irish. The cuisine takes its influence from the crops grown and animals farmed in its temperate climate. Representative modern Irish dishes include Irish stew, bacon and cabbage, boxty, coddle, and colcannon.

Rather, the tradition understands itself to be timeless, having always existed. Indeed, its collection of sacred texts is known, as a whole, as Sanatana Dharma, "The Eternal Teaching."

Hinduism is the dominant religion, or way of life in South Asia, most notably India. Although Hinduism contains different philosophies, it is united by shared concepts, same textual resources, common ritual techniques, cosmology and pilgrimage to sacred sites.

A major characteristic is the cycle of samsara - the cycle of life, death and rebirth, which involves karma, a way of calculating how good a person you are, and if your good enough you reach Nirvana. Another important part is that they believe in multiple Gods, but at the same time only beleive in one who comes in many parts.

The most common sport is football (soccer), throughout the history of the Fifa World Cup, Italy has competed 6 times and won 4 of those the most recent in 2006 against France. The average Italian life span in 82.94 years compared to the Australian lifespan of 82.10 and the average American lifespan of 78.48 years old. This is due to the Italians fresh food diet with much more fresh fish and a wider variety of foods. Fresh vegetables and fruit are commonly available and we use a lot of olive oil in cooking, and less animal fats than is found in Australian and American dishes."
