PREPARATIONS FOR BRITISH CULTURE AND SOCIETY
1. The features of the United Kingdom's culture
The culture of the United Kingdom is rich and varied, and has been influential on culture on a worldwide scale.
It is a European state, and has many cultural links with its former colonies, particularly those that use the English language. The origins of the UK as a political union
of formerly independent states has resulted in the preservation of distinctive cultures in each of the home nations.
Britain's culture and creativity is flourishing as never before, whether in creative industries such as advertising, music and film, or in the visual and performing arts.

Highways in Commonwealth countries generally begin with a N for national (e.g. N3) meaning they traverse the entire country or M for motorway (e.g. M25)
meaning they traverse only through or around a city (the M25 is a circular highway around London). Or R for route.
There is a very good reason behind the highway marking system in the USA. Highways marked "US" (i.e. the famous US 66), the lower numbers start in the northeast
and get higher as they move southwest. However, for highways marked Interstate (such as I–75 going from Michigan to Florida), lower numbers start in the
southwest, with road numbers getting higher as they go to the northwest. This was to help prevent confusion and overlapping numbering, as the Interstate highway
system was created after many "US–##" highways had been created
4. The approaches to deal with immigrant groups and their cultures
In dealing with immigrant groups and their cultures, there are essentially four approaches:
Monoculturalism: In some European states, culture is very closely linked to nationalism, thus government policy is to assimilate immigrants, although recent increases
in migration have led many European states to experiment with forms of multiculturalism.
Leitkultur (core culture): A model developed in Germany by Bassam Tibi. The idea is that minorities can have an identity of their own, but they should at least support
the core concepts of the culture
