    Which cultures do you most admire/find most interesting?

    RULES-
    1. You can only vote for three or less.
    2. If you must vote for more than three, please try to limit yourself to three or less anyway.
    3. Voting for more than three is right out.
    4. Voting in excess may result in scolding/loss of posting privileges.

    My choices were German, Chinese, and Native American.

                Yes... you know the one hat has taken over yours

                America-lite is quite apt .

                  I see someone has broken the three choices rule.

                  DinoD- Of course, but it would be problematic to list each and every tribe.

                  Frogger- I really wanted to include Canada and Finland, but sadly had not enough choices.
                  If you want to vote Canada, vote British or American.

                    That's funny; I see dozens of Canadians starring in American films, yet very few Americans starring in Canadian films.

                          I voted for India, China, and Native Americans (broad grouping, but still...).

                          India is #1. I don't know, there's just something really interesting, to me, about the Hindu religion, and also the current incarnation of India: a giant, bureaucratic, democratic state, reaching out for superpowerdom, but being oh-so-far... Very interesting.

                          The Chinese just have a lot of interesting history. The struggle between the Nationalists and the Socialists is intriguing to me.

                          And the Natives. Chief Seattle was aces.

                            I suppose you feel that being cultured isn't a prerequisite to having a culture...

                              Well when you have the best, why do you have to look elsewhere? After all, the Canucks come here to star in our films .
