Social and Cultural Environment

Language - Spanish is the primary language.

Attitudes - Colombia is the 5Th happiest country of the world. People talk to each other at crowds even if they don't know each other. Friendly people is all you going to find. Music is one of the most important thing to us, Vallenato, Salsa, Meregue are the most danced music.

Beliefs - 95% of the population adheres to Christianity,[50] the vast majority of which (between 81% and 90%) are Roman Catholic. About 1% of Colombians adhere to indigenous religions and under 1% to Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. However, despite high numbers of adherents, around 60%.While Colombia remains an overwhelmingly Roman Catholic country, the Colombian constitution guarantees freedom and equality of religion. Religious groups are readily able to obtain recognition as organized associations, although some smaller ones have faced difficulty in obtaining the additional recognition required to offer chaplaincy services in public facilities and to perform legally recognised marriages.(wikipedia)

Values - Colombia is well known for producing amazing music, food, and fauna. We have one of the most famous painter named Fernando Botero. People are the most united, families always reunite on weekends to have lunch together.

Business - are conducted mostly by wealthy people who gives the lower class most of the jobs. Most of them are family owned. This goes generation to generation.
