Cubans are a multi-ethnic people descended primarily from Spanish, African, and Chinese ancestors. The majority of Cubans are Christian, though Santeria, a blend of Catholicism and Yoruba religions, is also widely practiced. Cuban culture reflects its European, African, and American influences, seen especially in music like son, bolero, rumba, and mambo. The Spanish language is universally spoken, though some Cuban Americans use English.

Argentina's Immigrant HistoryJulianna Keyes
油
Argentina experienced three major phases of immigration and culture:
1. The Spanish colonial period from the late 1500s established Spanish as the dominant language and Roman Catholicism as the main religion. Major cities like Buenos Aires, Salta, and Jujuy were founded.
2. European immigration from 1860-1930 was dominated by Spanish and Italians who contributed to agriculture and industry. This shifted Argentina's culture away from a typical Latin American model.
3. A modern wave of migration followed Argentina's late 20th century economic collapse, as workers came from neighboring countries to fill jobs. This has introduced new native influences while straining government services for immigrants.Top 10 Different Cultures Around the World
