Understanding Cultures

This article was rather interesting because people from around the world will always have a different view on culture. What constitutes having "culture"? Does it mean having a long history? O maybe it means to be artistic.  China's history is long and has a long-standing tradition of foreigners becoming "sinicized" (Manchurians, Mongolians). America's culture technically also has a long history of culture, dating back to western civilization if that counts....
It is hard to measure culture. Coming from different backgrounds influences the way we view the world and what the word culture means to us (U.S.) ...and China.
