The American And Egyptian Cultures

The cultural differences between the United States and Egypt are high in numbers. Before traveling to Egypt and meeting with potential business leaders, many things must be taken into consideration. There are some things that we as Americans do and say that is considered normal in the U.S. but would be considered abnormal or rude in Egypt. The first step that would have to be taken is to establish a good relationship with my potential Egyptian business leaders. This would have to be done because most Egyptians will only do business with people that they know and respect. According to (Reich) Egyptians like to plan their business meetings out well in advance. Here in the U.S. it’s not

Ancient Egypt was a captivating and intricate civilization. Over the years, historians have found it easier to study this civilization, rather than other historical civilizations, because the Egyptians went through great lengths to record their history. Besides being decent record keepers, they were very religious, and “ahead of their time,” due to their technological and economic breakthroughs. Because of the aspects of this culture, it has to be one of the greatest civilizations of the world.

In comparing Ancient Egypt and modern day Americas, I found a few similarities and differences in their every day lifestyles. Things like religion, government, social class, writing, and their job specializations. It was surprising to me to find out that the ancient Egyptians way of leaving was somewhat like ours. Of course there are heavier differences, but still they were very modern for their times. Also I am in strong belief that we learned many things that are in our culture today from Ancient Egypt.

When people even mention ancient egypt, loads of things pop up like mummies, ruins,deaths,chaos, and none reasoning time period. Although in this case we have the wrong interpretation of how they actually loved their daily life better than americans do today . How can a lost civilization like ancient Egypt could even compare to American culture? Not only by how Egyptians had organized social standards, lifestyle, money, and how women’s rights were highly respected in the eyes of their people and government. Were as Americans are is still having trouble of picking the next president.

During my time there, I have been able to talk to many different types of visitors and patients. I am grateful that they trusted me enough to share their story with me and have increased my empathy for others. As a species, we should not hold prejudices against each other as we all have a different story to tell. Additionally, I have had the chance to travel to many different countries including Vietnam, South Korea, and Japan. All these counties have their own distinct culture and history and I appreciate everything that they had to offer. For example, I really admire the respect younger generations have for the elders in these Asian societies and am confident that American society could greatly benefit from this system. In the future, I would love to travel to a wider range of countries and indulge in the culture. Our world has so much diversity to offer and by understanding others way of living will connect us as a whole and reduce racism. There is no right or wrong way of living, we are simply influenced by the people and environment around us. To say that one group is superior to another is detestable. Empathy and compassion for others will only positively influence society and unify

Amongst the turbid and dysfunction that is the Middle East lies the nation of Egypt. Egypt, a major country of the Middle East, is habitually considered stereotypical of Middle Eastern civilization, but further research guides one to the conclusion that Egypt is far from a generic Middle Eastern country. Egypt has a strong tradition of nationalism that has been formed during its history, giving it a national unity that is often non-existent in other Middle Eastern nations (1). This, as well as other advantages that Egypt has gained during its past, has allowed it to rise above the problems plaguing the rest of the Middle East and to form basically its

After taking the cultural competence self-test assessment from the intercultural engagement resource, I feel that I am more culturally competent than most but I still have more learning to do. This assessment helped me realize my place on the trajectory to being cultural competent. I am a strong believer that people are more receptive to their own culture, so I try to adapt to other cultures by learning things about it. I never intentionally try to impose my values on anyone that may be inconsistent with their culture. By taking care of patients from different cultures, it opened my eyes and made me realize medical attention and health education varies amongst different cultures. After taking the survey I also learned to be a culturally competent nurse, I must not show any bias to my own culture. The assessment helped me examine my own biases and prejudices toward my own cultures and others. This assessment also helped me identify areas in which I need to improve to provide quality services to diverse

Over the last several thousand years, dozens of great civilizations have risen from nothing and fallen back into obscurity. Not all civilizations, however, leave a lasting mark on the world, especially not one so profound that influences the world as it exists today. One such civilization that has had a profound impact on daily modern lives was that of Ancient Egypt. Their systems of religion and technological innovation helped not only to leave a permanent impression on the world, but also served to mold both the civilizations that directly followed it as well as society today.

Ancient civilizations and empires have captured the eye and attention of historians for hundreds of years. From the lost civilization of Alexandria to the ever-present myth of Atlantis (fact or fiction?), history that has grown has caught the eye of many. Particularly, Ancient Egypt seems as rich in history and secrets as Greece or Rome. Egypt and modern day America don’t hold as many similarities as one might think, but they seem entangled together regardless of differences.

The European middle ages believed in Christian faith(God) while the ancient Egyptians had faith in other gods like Nut, Nekhbet, and Osiris. People in Egypt thought that illnesses were from evil forces and punishments from the gods, but the middle ages believed that it was evil forces but not a god's punishment. Diseases in the middle ages were a lot of skin related diseases and illnesses, while in ancient Egypt they had a lot of eyes related diseases/illnesses. Medical books were written in hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt, but the people of the middle ages had a different way of writing down things they used English today like writing.

Have you ever wondered how Ancient Egypt helped shape the world today? Ancient Egyptians were a group of folks who were heavily influenced by religion. They feared dying anywhere but Egypt. The Egyptian Empire held a fascinating and very distinctive culture. Being one of the world 's most advanced cultures and creating tons of wealth is what separated them from everybody else. Between the outstanding artwork, teaching methods, and amazing pyramids is what helped their society advance altogether. No other civilization of the ancient world history had such a popular appeal and none as important as human society and its organization. Egyptians have made great steps in shaping the world we all know today, which have made studying their culture and society easier than some previous historical eras.

From the structures of buildings, religion and pyramids, to the influence of art, it all played a part. The ancient civilization of the Egyptians was one of the most significant and well known cultures to ever have existed and technology wise, they were light years ahead.
