Culture ? it has many meanings but the most common is how you live and what you do. For example music, art, literature and food.
But when including religion it kinda completely changes and brings actual culture to life. In many religion there are certain rules that are to be followed, all of this becomes part of their daily routines changing their lifestyles. Like for example many Christians go to church to worship God and also follow our spiritual laws also known as the ten commandments. This has greatly impacted our culture because now we must live our lives safe and respectful .. it also gives us something to have faith and believe in. though many things are different for all kinds of religions, creating diversity of culture. Another example could be how many religions worship or where they worship. In comparing Islamic and Judaism they both have different worshiping spots Islamic goes to a mosque while Jews go to a synagogue or a temple. But what they do have in common is that they both go to worship God :)
In conclusion .... RELIGION HAS A HUGE IMPACT it creates a life style for many people making there culture more rich and awesome !!!!

Ccomapasion and Diffrences between Latin and Anglo America
Compare and contrast Anglo America to Latin America
Political: There are many differences between the both Americas but there are also many things that are the same between them also. For example one thing that they have in common is that some countries in Latin America have presidents too as there leader in government. Although other countries may not have presidents they are controlled by a ruler. Another big similarity is that both Americas went from being a monarchy to creating their own democracy and bettering there voice in the government.
Social: Unlike Latin America there are many privileges that a lot of the countries in Anglo America have. For example people in Anglo America tend to go to many places with their friends and family or, watch a game of the specific sport they enjoy, or just simply spend quality time with each other. Some countries in Latin America don’t get to enjoy theses thing for many reasons like economy. Although there are few countries that do get to do these things because their economy status is in good condition or there are also well urbanized. But one thing is for sure than no Latin American misses is there” novellas” in other words there soap operas... the world of drama :) Another difference is that they have is both have variety in religions.
Economy: Latin and Anglo America in there economy stage in quite similar but also different. For example bot h Latin America and Anglo America are involved with N.A.F.T.A and C.A.F.T.A. This eliminated barriers for trade and helped both Americas to condition a good economy. Also one difference they have in their economies is the currency. Anglo America uses the dollar, while some countries in Latin America have the peso “pound”.
As any region of the world there are many differences and similarities, but are able to come together and help support one another. :) <3

Latin americas crime
In Latin America crime rates have sky rocketed since the past years. Like in in Tegucigalpa, Honduras 8 people were killed and 3 people were injured because of a group of gunman ambushed a private bus. Photos of firefighters showed the crime scene , they say that the attack of Thursday night appeared to be targeted on one or two people on the bus. Police investigating the scene are trying to find out if the assault was in any connection of drug trafficking. Its very sad to see that many innocent people are being killed for the effect of drug trafficking. But what is even more sad is that many people living in theses countries live life in fear of getting hurt or even killed at any second. It has gotten so bad that military and police are always on the look out and maybe even invading peoples personal privacy , because of these them.
