If I identify with North American culture - does that mean the one homogenous culture of the USofA with it's single language and ethnic back ground*, the culture of Canada, that of Mexico, or one of the other 20 countries that form North America?

( all of these, of course, culturally homogenous )

* this is of course heavy with the /s

Is it culture you're attempting to track here, or merely a very rough geographic background?



I'd love to talk about culture, but listing every option I can think of will either be too long, omit too many, or everyone will answer "two or more".

I was struck by some recent comments that suggested HN was more heavily US-biased than I expected. Quantifying, even roughly, what cultures HN commenters are familiar with may shine some light on the voices we're not hearing.
