HISPANIC CULTURE

The Hispanic world. The map indicates countries with significant Hispanic influences.

'Hispanic culture' is a term used to indentify the cultural production found in Spain and in the countries that were part of the Spanish Empire, including Mexico, Peru and other countries that were formerly part of New Spain and the Viceroyalty of Peru.
In Latin America, portions of the Caribbean, the Philippines and Equatorial Guinea, Spanish cultural influences are significant. This includes to some extent those parts of the United States (the Southwest and Florida region) that were also originally colonized by the Spanish people. Hispanic nations share many of the same customs, traditions, language, food, art, and religion, though each country has its own unique culture and particularities.
Moreover, with globalization and migration, elements of Hispanic culture are now found in North America. There are a sizeable amount of Hispanic communities in several major states and cities in the United States including California, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Florida, Chicago and New York.
Contemporary pop culture has also made Hispanic food, music, dance and language, popular outside the non-Hispanic world.
