According to the dictionary, multiculturalism is the existence of several different cultures within a society, within a country , because in those countries live people with different cultures. Though the USA and Britain share the same language, English, this language is a vehicle that conveys two different cultural backgrounds, two different ways of life, two different kinds of nations.
As far as the USA is concerned, its main feature is diversity as this nation is the result of the mingling of all sorts of people coming from all over the world and because it is a huge country made up of different states with a certain local autonomy. However, there are some cultural aspects that may be identified as typically American and help keep the nation together. As a matter of fact, we all recognise McDonalds and Kentucky Fried Chicken as American.
