 The United States, like other nations, has a shared set of values and symbols that form the core culture. 
This culture is shared to some extent by all the various cultural and ethnic groups that make up the nation. This 
one culture is difficult to describe because the United States is such a complex nation, it is easier to identify the 
core culture within an isolated premodern society. However, it is possible to assert that the political institutions 
reflecting some of the nation’s core values were heavily influenced not only by the British but also by the Native 
Americans, particularly those practices related to making group decisions. 
 A key concept in the U.S. core culture is the idea that “all men are created equal". When the nation’s 
founding fathers expressed this idea in 1776, their conception of men was limited. White men without property, 
white women, and all Africans Americans and Native Americans were excluded. While the concept of quality 
had a limited meaning at that time, it has proven to be a powerful idea in the quest for civil rights in the Unites 
States. It remains an important part of the U.S. core culture and is still used by victimized groups to justify 
their struggles for equality.
