Expert Solution

Step 1 Introduction

Culture and community are closely related to each other. They both are important aspects of society, culture is the shared beliefs, values, customs, and practices of a group of individuals. It is the way of life that a group of individuals have developed over time, on the other hand community is a group of people who share common interests and goals and are connected to one another in some way, it can be defined geographically, socially, or politically. Culture and community work together to shape a group of people's identity and how they interact with one another.
