Give ideas as to how cultural diffusion shape civilization as we know it. give one specific historic example.

Cultural diffusion helped shape civilization in many different ways. One of the many examples would be how the "minority" group made their way into the areas with more white people. This caused a major uproar in the white community. The "minority" tried to make it is that they felt like they could belong. But the whites wanted nothing to do with them. Eventually, the whites gave in and accepted the "minority" groups.

The reality of human interactions is that we fear and avoid what we don’t understand. Most conscious thought about culture is about differences: “we” have this way of doing things, “they” do something else. This affects all interactions in a fundamental way. Similar cultures will mix more, trade more, share more than distant cultures.
