1. Culture refers to a set of beliefs, norms, values, behaviors and objects that members of a certain social group or society share, or have in common with each other. A type of culture for instance, can be western culture, which is typically characterized by individuality, modern and developed infrastructure, high literacy levels, etc. 

2. Cultures differ because people live in different geographical locations and are subject to different social roles, opportunities, education levels and day-to-day responsibilities. For instance a woman who lives on a remote farm belongs to a different culture compared to a woman who is a top executive at a multi-national company. Similarly, members of society who belong to the upper class belong to a different culture compared to members of society who live below the poverty line.

3. The relationship between culture and biology is characterized by certain features of culture that serve to propagate the human species and protect it from harm. Most if not all cultures promote sexual intercourse and reproduction to save the human species from extinction. Similarly, most cultures have laws to protect from crime in order to maintain safety and harmony in society.

Here they established themselves and the city later became known as Medina Al-Nabi or "the City of the Prophet" and was eventually shortened to its current name just Medina.

What are the absence of national identity and integration on national security and democratic governance in the world?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

A nation state is a state in which the great majority shares the same culture and is conscious of it. The nation state is an ideal in which cultural boundaries match up with political ones.[1] According to one definition, "a nation state is a sovereign state of which most of its subjects are united also by factors which defined a nation such as language or common descent."[2] It is a more precise concept than "country", since a country does not need to have a predominant ethnic group.

A nation, in the sense of a common ethnicity, may include a diaspora or refugees who live outside the nation-state; some nations of this sense do not have a state where that ethnicity predominates
