Culture in America

[megaspider01]

Every culture group should have it's own american culture. In most cases it'd just be "chinese american" or "east slavic american", but some cultures would have special ones like American in the British group and Latino in the Iberian group.

Yep. The mexicans haven't the same culture as Argentinians, for example

It'd probably be too complicated, too many cultures. Better to have one for all of the Americas.

Maybe 2?

I doubt Paradox would add more than one colonial culture per group, but if they do so be it.

I think the main/common colonizers (France, Portugal, Spain, Britain, Netherlands) should have region specific cultures in the regions they historically colonized. Others would just be like "Colonial Swiss"

I don't think they are culturally different enough for this to be a problem to begin with. I understand why american culture is in the game, but if it wasn't, it really wouldn't be a problem because the early USA really was english. When we compare the differences inside culture groups -like swedish and danish- those are clearly more distinct in this era than american and english were, for example.

It could be introduced as an experiment in areas where it makes sense. For example I would really love to see a common creole culture develop in the Carribean. It could consist of a mother culture group prefix and then "Creole". So French Creole, German Creole, etc. This way there won't be too many variables (1/culture group instead of 1/culture). They can form a unified creole culture group which is unique to the Carribean.
