It is regarded as the most extreme and complete form of authoritarianism.

Which of the following is an example of cultural diversity
Scilla [17]

The correct answer is - A. Rap music and country music are both popular in the United States.

The rap music and the country music are both popular in the United States. This is a nice example of cultural diversity because these two music types have different origins. While the country music is a music type created by the white settlers in America, and over time grew to be the traditional music of the United States, the rap music is a music type that was created by the black people in America. Despite being created by different racial and cultural groups both of these music types are popular in the United States and they have fans that are both white and black.
